lyrics

Shed no sorrow for me
I've made my bed
Oh well, oh well
Come tomorrow,
The highway leads my head
Oh well, oh well
Wherever I go
I know one thing that's dead
This golden fairy tale
And all that's hollow
Will fill me up instead
Until my heart can't swell no more

I don't need no one
I don't need no sun
To light this lone dark soul
I don't need no high
I don't need no low
I'm in the middle of the road

Share no moonbeam
Across my dying waves
Oh well oh well
Cast no quiet stream
To cool my summer days
Oh well oh well
If I've fallen
Then leave me in my place
Where I'm bound to dwell
Lend no helping hand
To the man who only takes
And keeps it for himself

I don't need no one
I don't need no sun
To light this lone dark soul
I don't need no high
I don't need no low
I'm in the middle of the road

No open window
Across my lonesome room
Oh well, oh well
No sweet birdsong
To strip me from my gloom
Oh well, Oh well
Stars, they flicker
And they vanish from my view
All my stars, they fell
And I'm left searching
For some wholesome honest truth
That I have never felt

I don't need no one
I don't need no sun
To light this lone dark soul
I don't need no high
I don't need no low
I'm in the middle of the road
