Verse 1
Ive got a car thats always stuck in the last gear.
Its starts and it goes if you leave it alone but you cant steer.
Taking it out on a Sunday drive on the back roads
And it waits till Im far away from home and the sun is getting low
Chorus 2
And wouldnt you know it, shes breaking down again
Pulling her over onto the shoulder, letting her under my skin
Verse 2
Ive got a woman that I havent seen for a good year
Shes got a new job, yeah I love her a lot but she aint here.
Weve got a system and shes got it all worked out
But theres something missing that shes forgetting that she cant live
without
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 3
(repeat verse progression)
Ive got a car, it looks real good with the top down
But it lost a tire and caught on fire in the last town
Ive got a girl whos drying her eyes with a haiku
So Im hitching a ride down 35, gotta be there by afternoon
(Repeat Chorus)
