Used to see him hanging around
Everywhere in a world of his own
See him hanging round street corners
Where we would meet

He was a lonely kid
Now they tell us that he's moved on
Ain't been seen for so long
Don't know where he's gone

It's been so long but I'm on the road
And though it ain't been easy
At least I made it on my own

My tongue's been tied for far too long
And now you're gonna hear me
At least I know where I belong

S.O.L.O. I'm on the road
S.O.L.O. I'm on my own

Y'see everybody's got someone
To lay their troubled lives upon
I'm really glad I've only got my own

Once upon a time
Well I had lots of friends
I moved freely through their lives
But two's a couple and
Well three's a crowd
I was just left out hanging around
I've had as much now as I can take
There ain't no need to stay

S.O.L.O. I'm on the road
S.O.L.O. I'm all alone

And everybody smiles as I go walking by
But I 'm really glad I've only got my own
