got enough gas to get me to Albuquerque.
if i dont, well, maybe i'll walk
it's been an age since i've had two pennies to rub together
I'm too tired to drive and a little too hungry to talk

too the first road headin' out of frisco
hit the highway and I uh started drivin' east
i aint one to complain about my misfortunes
but i ain't goin' back for another couple years at least

friend's stolen Volvo under my ass
this here highway is straight as an arrow
i'm hallucinating a cop under every overpass
i swear to God that i'm on the straight and narrow

there's nothin' like being on the run
to make this water taste so sweet.
