I've been on the road for many years Never got myself a place to settle down And even though I've had My ups and downs I know I'm still the same old kid like I used to be I'm still the same old kid like I used to be But I wonder yes I wonder Will I ever make it home To the place where I was born And the town where I grew up Spinning wheels that take me Down this endless highway Don't ever seem to take me home And every where I go I know I'm going my way Still I feel so all alone Many years have gone and I've grown old In my youth I thought it Never slow me down But before I fade away Just let me say to you I'm still the same old kid like I used to be I'm still the same old kid like I used to be But I'm praying and I'm hoping That there soon will come a day When I'll be drinking with my friends Singing songs of yesterday
