Road Trip 2008
.
Going time, on the road whenever I can
Travel for free just like any hobo man
.
Destination unknown, I'm going on a lark
Waiting to jump any train just after dark
.
Got to see corn fields burnt to the ground
Keeps prices high and profits safe and sound
.
Smelled the poppy seed drifting in the air
Makes some dream of a world they can bear
.
Met some folks, you could call them friends
Steal the gold from your teeth when it ends
.
Mr. Nobody over there didn't last the night
Now he's just fair game but don't seem right
.
I like that hat and I'll have the overcoat too
Stop your whining and just grab the other shoe
.
No funerals here no slice of birthday cake
But then again, we had one hell of a wake
.
Hey brother, pass that bottle if your able
I'm gonna drink it down then eat the label
.
Too drunk to tell if I just traded my soul
So I can shine on someone else's honor role
