[Verse 1]
I woke up from a bad dream
To the howling of a lonely night
But the walls come closing in
Like the victim of a one-way fight
I don't remember many yesterdays
I left a lot of things undone
Now I'm back and I'm here to say
I'm looking after number one

[Chorus]
Don't go, don't go where the road don't go [x2]

[Verse 2]
Seeing people on the freeway
Takes me back to where I started from
I was riding on the big wheel
I was walking in a midnight sun
Well, I did a lot of favors then
I asked for nothing in return
Now those friends have all disappeared
I guess there's still so much to learn

[Chorus]
Don't go, don't go where the road don't go [x2]
Don't go, don't you go where the road don't go
Because you'll never run, you'll never outrun the gun

[Bridge]
Well, I said it don't come easy
Well, I sure know how it feels

[Chorus]
Don't go, don't go where the road don't go [x4]
Don't go, don't you go where the road don't go
Because you'll never run, you'll never outrun the gun
Don't go, don't go where the road don't go [x2]
Don't go, don't you go where the road don't go

Ringo Starr

Best known as the drummer for The Beatles, Ringo Starr (born Richard Starkey, 1940) also had a moderately successful solo career (with hits like “It Don’t Come Easy” and “Photograph”) and was the narrator for Thomas The Tank Engine.

His country-infused nickname emerged from a tendency to wear rings on his fingers.
