THE ANNIVERSARY - LODI lyrics

rate me

originally by Creedence Clearwater Revival

The Anniversary occasionally plays this song live

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.

Mmmm...

If I only had a dollar, for every song I've sung

And every 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
