She always hides a note that says "I love you" inside my bag whenever I go away
And when I check in there's always a message waitin' just letting me know everything at home's okay

Road Widow you know I'm thinking of you
Wishin' I didn't have to leave you all alone
Maybe someday it won't be this way but right now the show goes on
And just about the lovin' you'll have when I get back home

Well you know she is a liberated woman and she's free to choose whatever she wants to be
And she knew I was a traveling man when she saw me coming
But still instead of all the others she chose me

Road Widow you know I'm thinking of you
Wishin' I didn't have to leave you all alone
Maybe someday it won't be this way but right now the show goes on
And just think of the lovin' you'll have when I get back home

Road Widow you know I'm thinking of you
Wishin' I didn't have to leave you all alone
Maybe someday it won't be this way but right now the show goes on
And just about the lovin' you'll have when I get back home
