Just about a year ago, i set out on the road Seekin' my fame and fortune, lookin' for a pot of gold Things got bad, and things got worse I guess you will know the tune Oh ! Lord, stuck in lodi again 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 friends Oh ! Lord, i'm stuck in lodi again The man from the magazine said i was on my way 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, stuck in lodi again If i only had a dollar, for ev'ry song i've sung And ev'ry 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, i'm stuck in lodi again Oh ! Lord, i'm stuck in lodi again
