[Verse 1]
I've had my friends
All them that come and they ate with me
All them that come and they drunk with me
I’ve had my friends
[Verse 2]
And there's been loads
All that said they would stand by me
All that said they could see what I could see
I've had my friends
[Verse 3]
Oh, I’ve had my dreams
New moon and roses like a foolish kid
Do unto others like I do to me
I've had my dreams
[Chorus]
And it's one for the road, yes it is
One for the cat's eyes, yes and
One for the white line
That's takin' me back home
[Verse 4]
Oh, now, I've had my way
All them that's took me there and back
All them that’s left me way off the track
I’ve had my way
[Verse 5]
Oh, now, I've had my day
Just like that doggy the story goes
Oh, but night time comes and you got no bones
But, I’ve had my day
[Chorus]
And it's one for the road, yes it is
One for the cat's eyes, yes and
One for the white line
That's takin’ me back home
[Instrumental]
[Verse 6]
Oh, now, I've seen my woman
Take her gardenia, now she stares away
Stares out the window and her eyes are grey
I've known my woman
[Verse 7]
Oh, yeah, I've had my dreams
Full moon and roses like a crazy kid
Do unto others like I would to me, yeah
Oh, I've had my dream
[Chorus]
Stil' it's one for the road, yes and
One for the cat's eyes, yes and
One for the white line
That's takin' me back home
[Chorus]
Yes it's one for the road, yes and
One for the cat's eyes, yes and
One for the white line
That's takin' me back home
