It's a bad idea and I'm all about it
Give it one more chance and
Then I finally had it
When you wake up, I'll be gone again
Motorcycle in the front lawn
It's an all-night drive from your house to Reno
To the T-bird graveyard where we play with fire
In another life, we were arsonists
How long's the Chevy been on cinder blocks?
Mama told me that it don't run on wishes
But that I should have fun
Pushing the flowers that come up
Into the front of a shotgun
So many hills to die on
Run out of gas, out of time, out of money
You're doing what you can, just makin' it run
(Take a break, make your escape)
Gas, out of time, out of money
You're doing what you can, just makin' it run
(There's only so much I can—)
(Take a break, make your escape)
(May I please have twenty dollars?)
Gas, out of time, out of money
You're doing what you can, just makin' it run
(There's only so much I can—)
(Take a break, make your escape)
(Can you give me twenty dollars?) Gas, out of time, out of money
You're doing what you can, just makin' it run
(There's only so much I can—)
(Take a break, make your escape)
Gas, out of time, out of money
You're doing what you can, just makin' it run
(There's only so much I can—)
(Take a break, make your escape)
(I know you have twenty dollars)
(I know you have twenty dollars)
Give it one more chance and
Then I finally had it
When you wake up, I'll be gone again
Motorcycle in the front lawn
