Intro: Verso 1: Just about a year ago, I set out on the road Seeking my fame and fortune, a-looking for a pot of gold Things got bad, and things got worse, I guess you know the tune Oh lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again Verso 2: Rode in on a Greyhound and I'll be walking out if I go I was just passing through, it must be seven months or more I ran out of time and money, looks like they took my friends Oh lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again Instrumental: Verso 3: The man from the magazine said I was on my way But somewhere I lost connections, ran out of songs to play I came into town, a one-night stand, looks like my plans fell through Oh lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again Instrumental Verso 4: If I only had a dollar for every song I've sung And every time I had to play, while people just sat there drunk You know, I'd catch the next train, right back to where I'm from Oh lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again Oh lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again Outro:
