lyrics

it’s wet in the RV and the roof’s caving in
i could tell you a story, where should i begin?
we’re parked in a walmart and it’s starting to rain
we’ve been a long way away and we’re coming home again

we’ll be in ohio by tomorrow night
if this engine stays running, we’ll be alright

the emerald city is coughing up smoke
it blackens the sky and it makes me choke
we’re off to the land of horizons and sun
and it seems to me lately my story has hardly begun

we’ll be in missouri by tomorrow night
if this engine stays running, we’ll be alright

can you tell from my motions that i don’t like to work?
but, it is not that i am afraid of the dirt
it ain’t that i’m lazy or that i want to lay low
i just can’t get my mind to unwind and move that slow

we’ll be in kansas by tomorrow night
if this engine stays running, we’ll be alright

i’m tired and i’m hungry, but i don’t want to eat
i’m stressed and i’m restless, but my bones are weak
i want to get stoned, but the cops are about
my lady is sweet though, and she’s got it all figured it out

we’ll be in colorado by tomorrow night
if this engine stays running, we’ll be alright

we’ll be in new mexico by tomorrow night
if this engine stays running, honey, we’ll be alright
