Road Widow

Ray Stevens

She always hides a note that says "i love you" inside my bag whenever i go away. And when i check in there's always a message waitin' just letting me know everything at home's okay.



Road Widow you know i'm thinking of you. Wishin' i didn't have to leave you all alone. Maybe someday it won't be this way but right now the show goes on and just about the lovin' you'll have when i get back home.



(guitar solo)



Well you know she is a liberated woman and she's free to choose whatever she wants to be. And she knew i was a travelling man when she saw me coming. But still instead of all the others she chose me.



Road Widow you know i'm thinking of you. Wishin' i didn't have to leave you all alone. Maybe someday it won't be this way but right now the show goes on and just think of the lovin' you'll have when i get back home.



(repeat chorus)
