lyrics

Got that ache in my gut
Got that itch in my spine
Got this burning in my lungs
From being trapped inside

I've been wasting away
I've been sick as a dog
I've been stuck in this city
In a dense unnatural fog


But the only medication
The only cure for my disease
10 cc's of dirt and asphalt
Open road therapy


So if I break my bones
Splint them with a mile marker
Wrap them up in roads

And if I cough up blood
I need an interstate transfusion
O negative type mud

If this cancer spreads
Give me gasoline drip chemo
Highway hospital bed

If I need surgery
Just Jack me up
Rotate my tires
Check engine light
oil expired


The river roads wind and curve
Like the shouldered stethoscope
Of a trusted family doctor
I-80 in a white coat

If only I could get a house call
Country gravel vaccines
A pill for endless gastanks
Serum for sleepless dreams


I don't get home sick
I get road sick
I'm Tired of sleeping in my bed
But it's my fault
That the asphalt's
Not where I'm staying instead
