Текст песни Eddy Arnold - My Way of Life

(Sonny Curtis)

Standing on the road
Walking down the highway
Ain’t going nowhere
But that’s my way of life.

Well, I ain’t never had much ambition
But I always made my own way
By turnin’ a couple of jobs in some ladies’ backyard
I averaged about a dollar a day.

I wake up early each morning
And before I started on my way
I get some cigarettes and a couple of cups of coffee
A sweepin’ the local city cafe.

Standing on the road
Walking down the highway
Ain’t going nowhere
But that’s my way of life.

Ain’t never had no one to love me
Never had girl to call my own
I never would take a chance to fool with romance
I guess I’m used to being alone.

Nobody wants a drifter
So I’ll keep moving on
There’s nothin’ to tie me down
When I wanna leave town.

Nobody’s gonna miss me
When I’m gone.

Standing on the road
Walking down the highway
Ain’t going nowhere
But that’s my way of life...
