terre haute - dan bern lyrics

Loading...

driving past terre haute in the rain
black coffee and triptophane
another thanksgiving day on the road
i ain’t complaining i been home a long stretch just now

up before the sun and on my way
oklahoma*pittsburgh in a day
conversation with an old friend who
says that lately i ain’t been such a good friend

i’m just trying to stay awake on the road
maybe i should get some pie a la mode
nine hundred miles is a heavy load
black beauties now would feel like gold

i really like the smell of gasoline
makes me think of places that i’ve been
reminds me of a distant mountain scenе
don’t breathe it too much, it’ll make you drеam

i knew a girl once in millersville
i wonder if she lives there still
got no time ‘cept to stop and fill
next time i surely will

i’m just trying to stay awake on the road
i’m losing control, heading for broke
we’re gonna shake it down
shake it down
when i get there i’m gonna get me a room
gonna take things out and look at them
maybe get me something nice to eat
later get myself a little treat

i’m just trying to stay awake on the road
i been flippin through the radio
fast*talking con men and cowboy songs
preachers telling me to come along

all i wanna do is stay awake jack
with the wind still blowin and the night so black
black like the coffee in my coffee cup
stir it up, stir it up

i knew these sisters once in bloomington
it’s been years since i thought of them
i wouldn’t know how to find them now
i forgot their names anyhow

i’m just trying to stay awake on the road
maybe i should get some pie a la mode
nine hundred miles is a heavy load
black beauties now would feel like gold
