Drivin'
Quarter million miles on my mini-van
Hub caps gone A.C. long since canned
Still I keep drivin'
To out ride those storm clouds on my back
Another Friday night playin' Steeltown
Ten years on the circuit, still feelin' like a clown
I try to keep livin'
Has my life slipped through the cracks
Chorus:
There go my foolish dreams again
Luck will you ever be my friend
There go the years I can't pretend
I want to make something before the end
Two more packs of second-hand smoke tonight
Left the club at 3 a.m. my van nowhere in sight
Guess I'll hail a cab
Throw my Marshall in his trunk
It's not my car that I'm feeling sorry for
It's the CD bag I had sittin' on the floor
If I had one chance I'd grab
Back all my classic rock and funk
Chorus
Time won't you be on my side
Chance please for once just don't hide
I'll keep on drivin' for you
'Cause its the thing that I do
Chorus
