Off The Main Drag

歌詞

Old gas station hasn't changed in decades Cashier checks the time around her Put my things on the counter Pull out my wallet like some pull down the shades My only brother lent me his only car Who knew I would drive it so far Sometimes you move out of some obligations It was gorgeous on the outside, inside it was just a machine It was the fastest thing I've ever seen I first met Victoria at Victoria station We'd always talked about going for a beer She said, "It's strange now that you're here." We went back to her place, 57th we'd cross it She's as poor as me but she looks twice as good I told her that because it's something I would She shrugged a little and she turned off the fauset And later on as we were crawling into bed I was thinking on something my father had said He said, "You're better off, off of the main drag." With my well-worn body wrenched like a rag There I was, straight off the main drag
