Lyrics

I told you once the day we met I wouldn't be your queen Your little darlin', sweet coquette Just is in our routine You've been around enough to know There's really no one else But when I hear that siren call, you know I just can't help myself I gotta go Hope you'll understand Baby I love you so Want you to be my man I hear it call Sounds so sweet and plain I gotta go, baby Because the road's my middle name Well, it's hard enough to love someone When they're right close to home Don't you think I know it's hard, honey I got to get all that sugar on the phone I guess the road is in my blood I'm my daddy's kid Just have to learn how to let me go Just like my momma did I gotta go Hope you'll understand Well, I love you so Baby you know you are the only man I hear it call Sounds so sweet and plain I gotta go baby Because the road's my middle name I gotta go darling The road is my middle name Let me go You know the road's my middle name
