Verse 1
Just about a year ago I set out on the road
Seeking my fame and fortune an`lookin' for a pot of gold
Things got bad and things got worse
I guess you will know the tune
Oh Lord stuck in Lodi again
Verse 2
Rode in on the Grey Hound I'll be walkin' out if I go
I was just passin' through must be seven months or more
Ran out of time and money Looks like they took my friends
Oh Lord stuck in Lodi again
Interlude
Verse 3
The man from the magazine said I was on my way
Somewhere I lost connection I ran out of songs to play
I came into town a one night stand
Looks like my plans fell through
Oh Lord stuck in Lodi again
Iterlude key change
Let-ring
Verse 4
If I only had a dollar for every song I've sung
And everytime I've had to play while people sat there drunk
You know I'd catch the next train back to were I live
Oh Lord I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Lord I'm stuck in Lodi again
