[Verse 1]
Out on an open highway
Such a lovely day but something's wrong
Something, something's got to be wrong, oh oh
(Something surely wrong)

I just left home this morning
This old road keeps rolling on and on
Rollind, rolling on and on
(Rolling, rolling on and on)

[Pre-Chorus]
Won't somebody help me?
(Somebody help me)
Somebody help me
(Somebody help me)
Somebody help me
(Somebody help me)

[Chorus]
I've never been so lonesome and a long way from home
(Never been so lonesome)
Never been lonesome an' a long way
(Never been so lonesome)
(Never been so lonesome)
I've never been lonesome an' a long way from home
(Never been so lonely)
(Never been so lonesome)
(Never been so lonely)

[Versw 2]
Yeah, something's wrong
Something, something's surely wrong
Rolling on and on
Rolling, rolling on and on

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Outro][x3]
(Never never never)
Never been so lonesome
Never been so lonely
(I've never been so lonely)
Never been so lonesome
Never been so lonely
