There’s something good about a long drive
A little time to get your head right
Some country air will keep your lungs tight
And help straighten shit out
There’s always magic in the nighttime
It’s always darkest fore’ the sunrise
Your cigarette will be the last light
That you ever put out
You can always turn around
Pick yourself back up
Tie your shoes up tight
And get the fuck out of town
I’m making sure to tell my true friends
How much I really do love them
Because you never really know when
Your time will end
We’re all riding on the same wave
We’ve got our ways to dull a sharp pain
But when the medication does fade
(and it will) just know you’ll be okay
You can always turn around
Pick yourself back up
Tie your shoes up tight
And get the fuck out of town
When I get my money right
I’m gonna get myself a dog
I’m gonna learn to settle down
I’m never gonna be tame
Only my baby knows my true name
We’re gonna drive through the USA
And call it getting away
