Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hands clutched ridged on the steering wheel
Whisky underneath the seat carefully concealed
Odometer is turning over three times
But I only gotta make it cross the county line
[Verse 2]
I only gotta make it cross the county line
[Verse 3]
Pennsylvania stretches out a mighty long ways
Keep it low speed so it feels like days
Got the F.M. radio on the left
There's some talk shows on they're boring me to death
[Verse 4]
Something happened out on 80 West
I can't figure it, I can't figure it out
Something happened out on 80 West
I can't figure it, I can't figure it out
[Verse 5]
I had a plan, for 30 years
A change is just as easily as shifting gears
The only thing that scares me more than getting caught
Is to stop I think about the lives I've fought
[Verse 6]
The only thing that scares me more, than getting caught
Something happened out on 80 West
Cars wind up on the frontage road
Something happened out on 80 West
I can't figure, I'm tryna figure it out
[Verse 7]
Something happened out on 80 West
Around the moment when everything just snapped
Something happened out on 80 West
I'm not turning, I'm not turning back
[Verse 8]
Something happened out on 80 West
One puzzled solved and another one blown sky high
Something happened out on 80 West
I can't figure, I can't figure it out
