Forty Five Miles

Snider

There's a truck turned over on the highway

Flares burning out of the snow

Freezing rain in the passing lane

I got forty five miles to go

Forty five miles forty five miles

That's gonna take me all night

Should have known right away that something was wrong

When I started thinking things were all right things were not all right

My old man's sick my sister's going broke

They're closing down my favorite bar

I got a smoker's cough and now to top it all off

I think I'm gonna wreck my car I'm gonna wreck my car

They say life goes in phases like seasons

I say something about all of them sucks

It's as hard to be hot as it is to be cold

You're either out of control or you're stuck you're either out of control or you're stuck

So take whatever road that you want to

Careful of the ice and the snow

I ain't got time to change my mind

I got forty five miles to go

Forty five miles forty five miles

That's gonna take me all night

I should have known right away that something was wrong

When I started thinking things were all right things are not all right
