"Crash On The Highway" lyrics

"Crash On The Highway"

There's a crash on the highway today
"Nobody's going anywhere" they say
It could be you up there
So you better say your prayers
And take it easy on the narrow way

And we can't make it to our gig on time
So we pull over and we drink some wine
They gotta five car pile-up in Rosenheim
Oh driver take me down the line

Germany has been cold and mean
I wanna get home to New Orleans
Me and my baby all we do is fight
Take me back home to BJ's on a Monday night

They got these two-dollar coins here, man
Some people say this is the promised land
But me, I'm happy in some southern bar
Just in the corner, playing my guitar

Oh there's a crash on the highway today
"Nobody's going anywhere" they say
It could be you up there
So you better say your prayers
And take it easy on the narrow way

All dressed up with nowhere to go
Feeling like the last stand at the Alamo
Man, I ain't got nothing but time
And I got Louisiana on my mind

Oh there's a crash on the highway today
"Nobody's going anywhere" they say
It could be you up there
So you better say your prayers
And take it easy on the narrow way

And take it easy on the narrow way
