On The Road Again By WILLIE NELSON (Cover)
"On the Road Again" is a song made famous by country music singer Willie Nelson, and is part of the soundtrack to the 1980 movie Honeysuckle Rose.

The song, about life on tour, came about when the executive producer of Honeysuckle Rose approached Nelson about writing the song.[1]

The song appears on the game Karaoke Revolution Country and on Guitar Hero: World Tour as a playable track.

In the South Park episode Kenny Dies the driver of the truck carrying the aborted fetuses sings "On the Road Again" before he crashes.

A Swedish version, with lyrics by Keith Almgren, called "Jag ser mig om" (Eng. I´m looking around" has been recorded by Anne Kihlström on the album "Förgät mig ej" 1984, and also by Paula Jarl on a single and by Bennys on an album 1987. (Courtesy of wikipedia)

Lyrics:

On the road again, just can't get wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends.
And I can't wait to get on the road again.
never been.

On the road again, going places that I've




Seein' things that I may never see again
And I can't wait to get on the road again

On the road again, like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends, insisting that the world keep turnin' our way, and our way.

is on the road again, just can't get wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends.
And I can't wait to get on the road again.

On the road again, like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends, insisting that the world keep turnin' our way, and our way

is on the road again, just can't get wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again
And I can't wait to get on the road again

Tab/Chords: Available upon request.

Incomplete list of other artists who've recorded this song: Keith Almgren, Da Yoopers, Kaizers Orchestra, The Highwaymen, The Chipmunks, Sheryl Crow, Rattlesnake Annie, rjeroots (youtube).


P.S Not to be mistaken with the song by "Canned heat". I will cover that one sometime down the road. Bernard Lavillers and Bob Dylan also do songs of the same name.
