I`ve spent half my life on a highway A million miles beneath my feet I`ve seen the bright lights of New York City I`ve seen the emptiest of small town streets
Yeah I`ve missed my share of birthdays Livin` in a hotel room Where 'I love you' is just a phone call And 'I`m sorry' is an 'I`ll be home real soon'
Who needs the road if I got you, babe? How long can you be a rollin` stone? Who needs the road if I got you, babe? The only thing I need right now is home Who needs the road, anyway?
I`ve never been good with ultimatums It always ends with 'It`s me or the road' Yet I`m still surprised to come home every time And have to reap the seeds that I`ve sown
Who needs a song if I got you, babe? We`re never gonna be the Rollin` Stones Who needs a song if I got you, babe? The only thing I need right now is home Who needs a song, anyway?
I`ll never have the fame or the fortune I`ll never drive a fancy car And I`ll never be one of the cool kids Playin` songs that make the girls dance at the bar
Who needs those things if I got you, babe? Who needs a cover of the Rollin` Stones? Who needs those things if I got you, babe? The only thing I need right now is home Who needs those things, anyway?
