Lyrics

TIRE TRACKS


Verse: I USED TO HAVE A DADDY
HE WAS MEAN AS HE WAS CRUEL
MY MAMA DIED OF HEARTACHE
LIVING WITH THAT ONRY MULE
THE DAY WE BURIED MAMA
I SAID GOODBYE TO THAT OLD FOOL
AND THE ONLY THING I LEFT BACK THERE
WAS MY TIRE TRACKS

Verse: I USED TO WORK A JOB
YEAH I USED TO WORK ALL DAY
I'D TOIL AND I'D SWEAT
BUT I WOULDN'T GET MUCH PAY
ONE DAY I SAID I'D HAD ENOUGH
AND I WAS ON MY WAY
AND THE ONLY THING I LEFT BACK THERE
WAS MY TIRE TRACKS

Chorus: STOMP ON THE GAS
POP IN THE CLUTCH
SET THEM TIRES BURNING
LEAVE YOUR TROUBLES IN THE DUST
STOP THINKING ABOUT TOMORROW
START LIVING FOR TODAY
IF YOU NEED TO MAKE YOUR GET AWAY
LAY THEM TIRE TRACKS

Verse: I USED TO HAVE A WOMAN
OR SHOULD I SAY THAT SHE HAD ME
SHE KEPT ME IN THE POOR HOUSE]
BUYING EVERYTHING SHE'D SEE
ONE DAY SHE GOT A LAWYER
IT WAS ME WHO PAIDED THE FEE
BUT THE ONLY THING I LEFT BACK THERE
WAS MY TIRE TRACKS

Chorus: (repeat)
