Fountains Of Wayne - A Road Song Lyrics
We're still in Wisconsin as far as I know
Today was Green Bay and tomorrow Chicago
Wish I was lying, but there isn't much to report
My phone is dying, so I've got to keep it short
I've been writing you a road song
It's a cliché, but hey
That doesn't make it so wrong
And in between the stops at the Cracker Barrel
And forty movies with Will Ferrell
I need some way to occupy my time
So I'm writing you a road song
I sure hope you don't mind
I bought you a light blue T-shirt last night
But their logo's alright
Some kid threw a bottle on stage
He had an arm like a pro
I know it's getting late
I guess I should let you go
But did I happen to say hey?
I've been writing you a road song
Don't run away, 'cause hey
I promise it won't be too long
I know it's not what you call necessary
And I know that I'm no Steve Perry
But even if you roll your eyes and groan
I'm still writing you a road song
That you can call your own

Thoughtful lyrics.
I honestly think there music is mediocre
They are quite unique actually! especially the voice.
The thinking man's Rock n Roll Band. FOW.
The thinking person's rock band.
That's how you write and perform song.
Una obra maestra !!!! Es, simplemente, perfecta.
I’m sorry they came to an end
Anyone watching in 2018?
Jonathan S nah 2019
2019...style doesnt go out of fashion.
I love YOU FOUNTAINS of WAYNE! You are AWESOME! 🌹❤🌹
i miss.
What a beautiful song FOW. So many good ones you have made.
Yet another little belter of a tune from the Fountains!!
SIMPLEMENTE PERFECTA !!!!!!!
listening this song on the way to Victoria
Check out the band Look Park - Collingwood's new project with the Fountains of Wayne sound!
ES QUE ESOS TIPOS SON IMPRESIONANTES !!!!!!!!!!!
These guys nailed it.
beautiful melody and harmony
Criminally unappreciated band. I love them and I hate that they aren't playing together anymore.
Saw them live about 5 times, caught Brian Young's drunk stick after a show. It was amazing. Glad the last time I saw them, they played I've Got A Flair. That's my favorite.
I'm sure they'll do a reunion show in the future.
@ZyxthePest Chris said in an interview once that he doesn't feel like he could play with them again after what he put them through. If they did though, I'll be first in line.
@MrFlaminglemon what did he put them through? I know about Look Park and some remarks about him wanting to do his own thing, but if Axl and Slash can set aside their differences..
@Yoga Nandiwardhana He was an alcoholic. Because of his drinking, he only wrote 3 or 4 songs on Traffic and Weather. He got better, but feels guilty for letting the band down, and can't forgive himself.
It would seem like playing and writing with them again while sober would be the perfect way to say I'm sorry... of course maybe he did that with Sky Full of Holes... still I don't think he is going to reach nearly as much audience with Look Park... it isn't quite the same sound, feel, vibe or quality overall.
epic song
Hey !
If you want, i made a lyric video of this song in my channel :)
Beautiful song. Great band.
please tour in Scotland il take some people let them hear a great band
underestimated band. One of my favorite bands...beautiful songs
Exactly my thoughts, man these lads are one of the best indie bands of the past years, their songs are so beautiful.
A goog Song ))
Sorry about the bottle
My favorite band for almost 20 years
buenisima siempre
What a fucking cracking tune
Such a beautiful song...! Wow I want your music to last forever.
im really happy I found this band, this is awesome
Ah, on the road... "Homeward Bound" and the many others. The Romance and the loneliness are all covered in the same dust of the highways that is clouding your windshield view.
This is my favorite song EVER :)
+Anna Yost It is a really lovely song ! =D
No it's fine! this song has a lot of memories for me too!
BEST BAND EVER
I second that emotion!
Just love these band and great guitar playing!
And even if you roll your eyes and groan
I'm still writing you a road song
That you can call your own.
My fav fab super duper power snap crackle and pop band!!!
good song
MTV sucks, We gotta search for the REAL music.!!!
what the fuck is people listening to this days? 27.424 views only...?? what it's wrong with people!?
I love this video, so many footage from Japan :)
I have the same feeling! I also have the same last name!
love this song!!:)
How can a band with so much talent go unnoticed? I feel bad for them but I also like the idea of them being my little secret. Feel like I know the guys.
Hope these guys sell a ton of music. 2:26 they mention a Great Great Singer songwriter, Steve Perry former lead singer of Journey.
I live in Wisconsin! :) And I am going to go see them at Summerfest!!!!!! So excited!!!!! :D
I love this so much
Coldplay? Who's Coldplay? :)
Another perfect pop gem by the most underrated band in the world.
only 1,000 views? wtf?!
<3 love this song!
A real treasure. Thanks FoW!
Heading to Boston, Massachusetts
third!
