Many a Mile Lyrics by John Kay (Steppenwolf)

Forgotten Songs & Unsung Heroes

0

[Verse 1]
I've damn near walked this world around
Another city, another town
Another friend to say goodbye
Another time to sit and cry
[Refrain]
And it's many a mile I have been on this road
It's many a mile I have gone
[Verse 2]
I've seen your towns they're all the same
The only difference is in the name
And the only life I've ever knowed
Has been my suitcase and the open road
[Refrain]
And it's many a mile I have been on this road
It's many a mile I have gone
[Verse 3]
There was a girl, she knew me best
You know she gave my poor heart rest
She was my world my joy my dear
And now she's gone to God knows where
[Refrain]
And it's many a mile I have been on this road
It's many a mile I have gone
[Verse 4]
So I'll fill my glass up to the brim
And through my glass the world looks dim
But I know outside there's a light somewhere
Maybe my rambling will take me there
[Refrain]
And it's many a mile I have been on this road
It's many a mile I have gone
[Outro]
It's many a mile I have been on this road
And it's many a mile will go
