|
It felt so fitting |
|
As I crossed the state line |
|
As the last chord rang out |
|
And the tape started to unwind |
|
As my knuckles on the wheel |
|
Made a perfect gun-sight |
|
And each car that fell there |
|
I could vanish from the light |
|
But God knows I wouldn't |
|
I need all the company I can get |
|
Even that redneck |
|
In the red corvette |
|
The highway takes |
|
A toll on your soul |
|
The odometer reads miles |
|
Like time calling roll |
|
In the broken road kill |
|
It's there in their eyes |
|
Was I put here |
|
To be food for the flies |
|
God knows if I wasn't |
|
It's for the company I can get |
|
Even that redneck |
|
In the red corvette |
