Lyrics

MY OH MY OH HOW THINGS CHANGE
I LOOK DOWN THE ROAD AND
I SWITCHED A LANE
THE REAR VIEW FLASHED
WHAT I LEFT BEHIND
STILL FEELING THE PAIN
FROM A HEART SO UNKIND

I PACKED UP MY THINGS
AND THEN I HIT THE GROUND RUNNING
JUMPED IN MY TRUCK
AND I SAID,?SEE YOU LATER HONEY!?
YEAH

Chorus:
ON THE ROAD OF LIFE
I GOT A FLAT
WITH NO IDEA OF
WHERE I?M AT
THE SUN IS SHINING
IT?S HOT AS HELL
BUT I CAN CHANGE A TIRE
BY MYSELF

I?M A BIRD IN FLIGHT
NOT ACCUSTOMED TO TIES
YOU CAN?T HOLD ME DOWN
WITH THOSE FANCY LIES
I LOOKED TO MY SIDE
I HAD YOUR FAVORITE SHIRT
I ROLLED DOWN THE WINDOW
THREW IT RIGHT IN THE DIRT

I HAD ONE LAST THOUGHT ABOUT YOU?
YOU KNOW IT FIGURES
RIGHT THEN MY TIRE BLEW

(CHORUS)

YEE HA! EAT MY DUST!!!

I HAD ONE LAST THOUGHT ABOUT YOU?
YOU KNOW IT FIGURES
RIGHT THEN MY TIRE BLEW

(CHORUS OUT)
