On the road
Hell In the Club Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Strong emotions
when I can see my face inside your eyes...
from these lights on 'till last line.my words upon your smile
I'll take you high tonight
I'll make you feel alright
jumping up and down dressed up like clowns side by side

I'm on my way now
take your wings and fly
and may the wind carry you to dance with the stars
oh have a nice trip my friends wherever you go
I hope your way takes you far
maybe one day we'll meet on the road

A merry-go-round
from show to show
along your road, don't turn around
Another day, another night on stage
a place that I call home
now put out your soul
and hear the highway call
Go to sleep in a town
and wake up with the sounds of another one

Now is the time to leave and turn the page
I want to live my life on stage and not die in a cage
and there's world outside for you every day
I say come on come on come on! come on it take now!




Oh have a nice trip my friends wherever you'll go
I hope your way takes you far away

Overall Meaning

Hell In the Club's song "On the Road" is essentially an anthem for the band and their experience of life on tour. The song is a fast-paced rock track that speaks to the emotional highs and lows of being on the road, while simultaneously nodding to the desire for a life of freedom and creativity.


The opening verse talks of the strong emotions that the band members feel while performing live. There is a sense of camaraderie between the musicians and their fans, as they share in the excitement and enthusiasm of a live performance. The lyrics, "I'll take you high tonight, I'll make you feel alright, jumping up and down dressed up like clowns side by side" provide a vivid sense of the joy and abandon that comes with playing live music.


The song then shifts to a more introspective tone, as the lyrics describe the endless cycle of touring life. There is a sense of weariness and restlessness that comes with constantly being on the road, which is encapsulated in lines such as "A merry-go-round from show to show, along your road, don't turn around". Yet, despite the difficulties associated with the touring lifestyle, there is an underlying desire to keep going, to keep pushing forward towards the next gig, the next town, the next experience.

This is the stuff from the decadent 80's... Totally brings me back when heavy/hard rock was fun to jam.... good times.
