On The Road Again

Would not my fat girl tell you the reason why?
Fat girls will even do things on the sly
Look for your dinner to be good and hot
She never even put a stew-bone in the pot

Chorus
She's on the road again, sure as you're born
Natural born eastman on the road again
She's on the road again, sure as you're born

Friend comes by, says he's looking for his hat
Wants to know where's your husband's at
Say I don't know, he's on the way to the pen
Come on pretty momma let's get on the road again

[chorus]

I went to my house, my front door was locked
Went round to the window, found my window was locked
Jumped right back, I shook my head
Big old rounder in my folding bed
Shot through the window, broke the glass
Never seen that little rounder run so fast

[chorus]

1. Although usually sang by Bob, Jerry sang a slightly different version in 1966:

Well I went to my fat girl, I'll tell you why
Fat girls even do things on the sly
Look for your soup to be good and hot
She never even put a soup-bone in the pot

Chorus
She's on the road again, sure as you're born
Natural born eastman on the road again
She's on the road again, sure as you're born

I went to my door, and my door was locked
I went to my window and my window was locked
Jumped right back, I shook my head
Great big rounder in my folding bed
Shot through the window, broke the glass
Never seen that little rounder run so fast

[chorus]

Well your friend comes to your house, in his Stetson hat
Wants to know where's your husband's at
Say I don't know, he's on the way to the pen
Come on pretty momma let's get on the road again

[chorus]
