The Road's My Middle Name Lyrics - Nick Of Time - Bonnie Raitt

I told you once the day we met 

I wouldn't be your queen 

Your little darlin', sweet coquette 

Just what my routine 

You've been around enough to know 

There's really no one else 

When I hear that siren call, baby 

I just can't help myself 

I gotta go 

I hope you'll understand 

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 

To squeeze the sugar from the phone 

Guess the road is in my blood 

'Cause I'm my daddy's kid 

Just have to learn how to let me go 

Just like my momma did 

I gotta go 

I hope you'll understand 

Yeah, I love you so 

Want you to be my man 

I hear it call, baby 

Sounds so sweet and plain 

I gotta go 

Because the road's my middle name 

Photos 

Hear it call 

And it sounds so sweet and plain 

I gotta go 

'Cause the road is my middle name 

I gotta go 

'Cause the road my middle name 

Ooh, I gotta go, darlin' 

Because the road is my middle name
