I wanna’ give it up
In this life of mine
I wanna’ buy my old truck back
The one lost to that bank
Of fallen down garage towns
And head light nights of
Yellow double line passing.

Cause I’m really stuck
I don’t like what I’m doin’
I’ll be the wheel man,
In this Mercury
On Vine.
I turn  the radio down
Trying to remember our talk
On the phone.
I’ll drive this car fast as I can
And crazy as I used to be
Getting home to you.
Tryin’ to get back home.

  1. Sounds like a song, Robert. Reads like a song. Fallen down garage towns...I know towns like these. Live in one. Don't mind, really. But it sure would be nice, wouldn't it, to get that truck back - just that, and leave the rest, and strike out through the night.
