Rickie Lee Jones - The Last Chance Texaco lyrics
Your rating:
Along stretch of headlines Blends into I-9 Tiptoe into truck-stops And sleepy diesel eyes Volcanoes rumble into taxi And glow in the dark Camels in the driver's seat A slow, easy mark But you ran out of gas Down the road a piece Then the battery went dead And now the cable won't reach It's your last chance To check under the hood Last chance She ain't sounding to good Your last chance To trust the man with the star You've found the Last Chance Texaco Well, he tried to be standard He tried to be Mobil He tried living in a World And in a Shell There was this block-busted blond He loved her-free part and labor But she broke down and died And threw all the rods he gave her But this one ain't fuel injected Her plugs's disconnected She got scared and she stalls She just need a man, that's all It's her last chance Her timing's all wrong Her last chance She can't idle this long Her last chance turn her over and go Pullin' out of the Last Chance Texaco The last chance
