The Road’s My Middle Name

Road's My Middle Name
I told you once the day we met
I wouldn't be your king
Your little darling sweet Rickey
Isn't my routine
I've been around enough to know
There's relly no one else
But when I hear that siren call baby
I just can't help myself

I gotta go, hope you'll understand
I love you so, want you to be my woman
I hear it call baby sounds so sweet and plain
I gotta go, 'cause the roads my middle name

Well it's hard enough to love someone
When they're right close to home
Don't you know I know it's hard now baby
Squeezin' sugar from the phone
Have mercy

This road is in my blood
'Cause I'm Shorty's kid
You gotta learn how to let me go baby
Just like Juanita did

Hear it call and it sounds so sweet and plain
I gotta go, 'cause the roads my middle name
I gotta go, 'cause the roads my middle name
I gotta go, 'cause the roads my middle name
