(CHORUS)
FLYING AWAY AGAIN
LEFT THE WIFE AND KIDS BACK HOME
ALWAYS ON THE ROAD IT SEEMS
MY LIFE IS NOT MY OWN
HOW CAN I DO IT
WHY DO I STAY
AWAY FROM THE ONES I LOVE
IT HURTS ME MORE EACH DAY
I TELL MY LITTLE BOY
DADDY HAS TO GO AWAY
PLEASE BE GOOD FOR MAMA
I'LL CALL YOU EVERYDAY
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH
I HATE TO GO THIS WAY
I SEE MY BABY GIRL
THE SUNSHINE IN MY LIFE
CRYING IN THE ARMS
OF MY LOVELY WIFE
MY LITTLE PRINCESS
GETS BIGGER EVERY DAY (WHILE I'M)
(CHORUS)
(BRIDGE)
THE ROAD IT SEEMS TO BE MY HOME
I'M ALWAYS ON MY OWN
WHAT ABOUT THOSE LEFT BEHIND
WITH THEIR DADDY OUT ON LOAN
THINGS JUST CAN'T STAY THIS WAY
LIVING LONG DISTANCE LOVE
MY WIFE IS THE STRONG ONE
SHE STANDS RIGHT BY MY SIDE
SHE TELLS ME SHE'S OK
THOUGH HER TEARS SHE CAN NOT HIDE
I JUST CANT TAKE ANYMORE
AND SO ON THIS DAY (I'M GOIN')
BACK TO THE ONES I LOVE
I'M GOIN' HOME TO STAY
