Lyrics
BURNING UP MY GOODYEARS
Mama always said I had nomad in my blood cause Baby I was born to run
Spent the better of the last few years wondering who or what from
Throwing longnecks backs with a cigarette smokestack from Baton Rouge to Santa Fe
Wasting my money, spinning my wheels, spending my nights in a daze
Too many white lines on the highway
Heaven in my rearview mirror
Hell's just a Five on the gearshift knob
And I'm burning up my Goodyear's
Broke down ten miles from Austin flagged down a red Chevrolet
Brown eyed girl at the steering wheel stole my breath away
Spent the next two weeks with a good Texas women did a little talking for a change
My car came off the blocks with a new radiator I wanted so bad to stay
I hit the breaks someday just not someday soon
Call this a detour to my final destination but for now there's...
Too many white lines on the highway
Heaven in my rearview mirror
Hell's just a Five on the gearshift knob
And I'm burning up my Goodyear's
