Used to see him hanging around everywhere
In a world of his own
See him hanging around street corners where
We would meet, he was a lonely kid

Now they tell us now 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

Oh, 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
Hello, hello, I'm on my own

You 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 twos a couple and, well, threes 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
Hello, hello, I'm all alone

Ah yes and everybody smiles
As I go walking by
But I'm really glad I've only got my own

S.O.L.O., I'm all alone
S.O.L.O., I'm going down the road
S.O.L.O., I'm all alone

S.O.L.O., hello, hello
I'm going down the road
S.O.L.O., ooh, I'm on my own
S.O.L.O., I'm all alone

S.O.L.O., S.O.L.O., oh
I'm on the road
Going down the road, ooh
S.O.L.O., I'm all alone
