James McMurtry - How'm I Gonna Find You Now lyrics

Your rating:

I've got a cup of black coffee so I don't get lazy

I've got a rattle in the dashboard driving me crazy

And if I hit it with my fist it'll quit for a little while

Gonna have to stop and take a piss in another mile

Headed into town gonna meet you at the mercantile

Take it to the Sonic get you grinning like a crocodile



I got a hole in the floorboard sucking in fumes

I'll leave the hitchhiker standing 'cause I haven't got room

Well he looked kinda scary so I didn't like him anyway

Could've been a con from the state prison runaway

Anyway he probably hadn't showered in a couple days

No one but a fool would've given him the time of day, yeah



Just listen close I'll tell you how I feel

You need to know so I'll talk slow

I always keep it real



I see the red light blinking in the middle of town

But I don't see your car parked anywhere around

And I'm smoking into town like a molotov cocktail

Rag in the gas cap flapping loose never fails

Cell phone's down 'cause they didn't get the check I mailed

How'm I gonna find you now

How'm I gonna find you now



I remember when I met you I's in love in one fell swoop

You had a blade in your pocket and a rag in your belt loop

Guys hovering 'round the bar like gulls on the ocean 

At the end of your shift just in case you got the notion

Watch you washin' all the glassware, poetry in motion

I'd a'roped the moon for you

How'm I gonna find you now

How'm I gonna find you now



Just listen close I'll tell you how I feel

You need to know so I'll talk slow

I won't let go of this obsessive zeal 



I've got a mad coming on and it's gonna be dreadful 

Now I'm washing down my blood pressure pill with a Red Bull

I hit the city limit sign and I'm blind and I'm seeing red

Uniroyal tire on the right rear throwing tread

You oughta see the x-rated scene running in my head

Big as a baby's arm

How'm I gonna find you now

How'm I gonna find you now
