I'm on the road, I won't be back again
I'm on the road, I won't be back again

I been gone since God knows when
With this guitar my only friend
'Cause I can't afford to pay my student loan

Collection agents barking on my trail
Collection agents barking on my trail

They tap my phones, they read my mail
They say they'll throw me straight in jail
If I fail to pay my student loan

My sweet lover said he'd wait for me
My sweet lover said he'd wait for me

But when I came back what did I see
But a girl on his arm with a Bachelor's Degree
She already paid her student loan

So I'm gonna sit and play this here guitar
I'm gonna sit and play this here guitar

'Cause if I play this here guitar
Then maybe David Geffen will make me a star
Then I could pay back my student loan
