[Verse 1] Just about a year ago I set out on the road Seekin' my fame and fortune And lookin' for a pot of gold Things got bad and things got worse I guess you know the tune Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again [Verse 2] Rode in on the Greyhound I'll be walkin' out if I go I was just passin' through Must be seven months or more Ran out of time and money Looks like they took my friend Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again [Verse 3] The man from the magazine Said I was on my way Somewhere I lost connections I ran out of songs to play I came into town a one night stand Looks like my plans fell through Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again [Verse 4] If I only had a dollar For every song I sung Every time I've had to play While people sat there drunk You know I'd catch the next train Back to where I live Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again [Refrain] Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
