Hand clutched rigid on a steering wheel

Whiskey underneath the seat, carefully concealed

Odometer has turned over 3 times

But I only gotta make it across the county line



Pennsylvania stretches out a mighty long ways

Keep it low speed so it feels like days

Got the FM radio on the left

Some talk show zombie boring me to death



Something happened out on 80 West

I can't figure--I can't figure it out.



Had me a dream for 30 years

But it changes just as easily as shifting gears

The only thing that scares me more than getting caught

Is to stop and think about the lies I bought



Something happened out on 80 West

Cars lined up on the frontage road

Something happened out on 80 West

I can't figure--I'm trying to figure it out.



Something happened out on 80 West

Around the moment when everything just snapped

Something happened out on 80 West

I'm not turning back

Something happened out on 80 West

One puzzle solved and another one blown sky high

Something happened out on 80 West

I can't figure--I can't figure it out.
