You're sweet on the road, ah
Sweet on the road, ah
And I'll love you 'til I'm ninety light years old
You're sweet on the road, ah
Sweet on the road, ah
And I'll love you 'til I'm ninety light years old

You got the sweetest feel
You touch me so unreal
You take me from the north unto the south
I laid my hands on you
And I begged you to be true
But never thought you'd make me feel this way

You're sweet on the road, ah
Sweet on the road, ah
And I'll love you 'til I'm ninety light years old
You're sweet on the road, ah
Sweet on the road, ah
And I'll love you 'til I'm ninety light years old

You purred a sweet hello
Why, baby, don't you know?
A man could really love the things you do
You're the best thing on the run
You're nice and in the sun
Thank the Lord you let our bodies meet
You're sweet on the road, ah
Sweet on the road, ah
And I'll love you 'til I'm ninety light years old
You're sweet on the road, ah
Sweet on the road, ah
And I'll love you 'til I'm ninety light years old

The perfect example of what you mean to me
A good friend asked me, did I know
That you're an impossible thing to control
Now he's not my good friend anymore

You're sweet on the road, ah
Sweet on the road, ah
And I'll love you 'til I'm ninety light years old
You're sweet on the road, ah
Sweet on the road, ah
And I'll love you 'til I'm ninety light years old

You took me to New Orleans
And I thought it was a dream
Until the ragtime rode out to your beat
And all the guys I know
Would let their eye tooth go
To dog around and worship at your feet
Because you're sweet on the road, ah
Sweet on the road, ah
And I'll love you 'til I'm ninety light years old
You're sweet on the road, ah
Sweet on the road, ah
And I'll love you 'til I'm ninety light years old
