[Verse 1]
I knew a girl who lived somewhere
Other than nowhere
But not at home

Singing her songs in the night air
Lookin' for somewhere
To call her own

[Chorus]
The road is no place for a woman
Her traveling has made that quite plain
The road is no place for a lady
She's got to have a fire
Burning somewhere sane

[Verse 2]
The neon lights flash by her window
Listen to the wind blow
To another town

Oceans inside but the tide's low
If you go too slow
Then you may drown

[Chorus]
The road is no place for a woman
Her traveling has made that quite plain
The road is no place for a lady
She's got to have a fire
Burning somewhere sane
