The Roadie Song Lyrics

(Aaron Neville) 

You know night after night these guys are setting up, hooking up, 

climbing past the sky. They don't really get no praise, 

so I wrote this song in honor of them, 

cuz without them there'd be no show. 

So get a roadie song, after all he ain't no bum 

Give a roadie a hand, he's really part of the band 

Get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie song 

Them speakers weigh a ton 

His work is never done 

So get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie song 

Got a mighty long ways to travel 

He's gotta cover many miles of gravel 

He's gotta long long ways to go 

And if he don't make it, there ain't gonna be no show 

So give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie song 

He climbed to kingdom Come 

He's up to see the sun 

Get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie song 

He's got a mighty long ways to travel 

He's gotta cover many miles of gravel 

He's gotta long long ways to go 

And if he don't make it, there ain't gonna be no show 

Get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie song, after all he ain't no bum 

And get a roadie a hand, he's really part of the band 

Give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie song 

Get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie song 

Give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give a roadie song 

Give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give a roadie song
