Take a seat by the window, it seems the road
it stretches out for miles in front of me
to the next town to sing out another tune
my friends and i, you know, will sing them just for you
i stand alone, i stand alone
seen the heartbreaks everyday and so have you
seems we can't do without it, you know that it's true
as many towns i've seen and many more to come
i'll keep playing my music till my life on earth is done
yes, i stand alone and funny as it may seem
it's not in spirit 'cause some people are with me
i've played around your towns and many have made me cry
i stand alone, in the open, not knowing why
i'll get my bags, pack my clothes, and put 'em away
think of tomorrow 'cause tomorrow's a brand new day
think of all the friends i've made away from home
i'm glad they were with me as i stood alone
yes, i stand alone and funny as it may seem
it's not in spirit 'cause some people are with me
i've played around your towns and many have made me cry
i stand alone, in the open, not knowing why
i stand alone, i stand alone
i stand alone, i stand alone
i stand alone, i stand alone
