I don't have much to say Thought I'd call you up anyway Just to try to show you the way That I feel today To say, I miss you, baby I sure am on the road I don't need to say much more Just the same old well-known stranger That I was before It seems like yesterday now Daddy's all gone Only 'bout halfway home He's holdin' on to the telephone Singin' please Don't make this show go on There's a bus every other hour There's even the midnight train But that don't leave me the power To see your face again It's not that simple, baby There's a room full of smiling faces There's a man standing by the door Says it's time to change our places Get down on the floor Time to kill them, baby Daddy's all gone Only 'bout halfway home He's holdin' on to the microphone Singin' please Don't make this show go on
