This Is Not the Way Home

Broke down at a truck stop

Got wet sweat under a hard top

Wrong directions are shown

Threw up in the men's restroom

This is not the way home

Shotguns freckle the road signs

Wind burn cross the white line

So much nothing is grown

Finished our fifth six-pack

This is not the way home

Left early without paying the bill

Hitch-hiked back to Broken Hill

Left my wallet somewhere

Wrong directions are shown

This is not the way home

Broke down at a truck stop

A wet sweat under a hard top

Wrong directions are shown again

Threw up in the men's shithouse

But this is not the way home

Oh, this is not the way home
