lyrics

Stranded out of gas
One mile from the overpass
Every second that ticks past
Makes me think of you

The rain a-coming down
Wonder how it is in this town
When you’re up you’re up, you’re down you’re down
That’s all there is to do

Chorus:
Doot do do do do doo do
Doot do doo do do do doo do
Doot do do do do doo do
Doot do do do doo do

Doot do do do do doo do
Doot do doo do do do doo do
Doot do do do do doo do
Doot do do do doo do

You came without cost
When I thought everything was lost
There to lend a helping hand
When I became blue

Heroes come and go
With their small armies in tow
The world for all we know
Is something sad and true
It’s so true, so true

Chorus

The way home has left
Came up short fifty cents
Seems there’s no way outta this mess
Except straight through

And if I get home to you
Tell you what I’m gonna do
Repent for all of my ways
Make it up to you, whoa

Chorus x2
