Road Block

(Janis Joplin, Peter Albin)

Yeah!, all right!

Oh, ain't no problem
Carry no heavy load
Lord, no!
Why can't I love you, baby ?
You try to block my road.
You try to block my road. Hey!

Oh, better off to hand you
Everything I own, ha ha ha ha!
Strange to see you waiting for me,
You try to block my road, yeah yeah,
Try to block my road
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
