Road Buddy Lyrics

Road Buddy lyrics




We passed the stores, we passed the hotels 
Filled our car with gasoline

We drove that night, I saw the moon 
Almost got us in an accident 
And
then at the rest stop 
When that woman tried to steal my wallet 
It felt
like an adventure Isn't that what you would call it? I
sn't that what you
would call it? 
You're my road buddy, but I'm lonely all the time 
I
thought we'd be joking, having long talks on late night drives 
But you
drive so bad I lost my patience 
So pass the chips and turn the station

This is not a romance with the road 

Where the moss grows up the
trees 
To where the bird is rusty 
I thought we'd find ecah story like a
snakeskin or an arrowhead 
But we onlys top at fastfood places 
They hate
thier jobs, I understand 
They try to act familiar, but they're floating just
above the land 
And we are all floating 
You're my road buddy, but I'm
lonely all the time 
I thought we'd show that friendship could be stronger
than the crossroads 
Double back I thought I heard the Tori sing, 
I'll
take that thing 
This is not a romance with the road 

In those cliffs
are the same as in the magazines I have at home 
And the tall grass reminds
me of the same dreams I had at home
I thought life was a road and I wanted
to begin it 
I said, my friend and I going on a trip so I could only stop a
minute 
We go to the venting machines, 
I want to watch these kids with
their mother, sipping on their juice boxes and 
smiling at each other,

and maybe that's their dad on the phone, 
saying, hey mon, you couldn't
wait, go ahead, have dinner, 'cause werre running 
just a little late

But we're on our way 
Road buddy,  road buddy, I heard about the boxcars
and the family of travelers 
But there's real estate sides in the cornfields
I know there's love, 
I bet there's trouble 
But you just can't spend a
lifetime on the road And there's something I finally 
faced 
I finally
think I come from someplace 
This is not a romance with the road
