SMOKE

another tuesday runaway

another backpack and a walk on highway

well i got my thumb up

hoping for a truck to pick me up

to pick me up

 

i couldn't wait to leave that town

cause it's filled with nothing but smoke

and people who don't know me anymore

​

sweet, sweet jimmy

well he's been driving from kansas city

picked me up from the bay

and dropped me oft in Monterey

he said "luck isn't going my way

cause i lost my house

in the storm of 22’

and my wife found a new roof for her and the kid

 

couldn't wait to leave that town

cause it's filled with nothing but smoke

and people who don't know me anymore”

 

in resurrection southwest

i found alex

living in his van on the side of the road

said "if i get out of alaska, i'm never going home

in the wild i'm never alone

 

i couldn't wait to leave that town

cause it's filled with nothing but smoke

and people who don't know me anymore”

 

we're all hitch hikers just running around the sun

and we're all cowboys and rebels on the run

and we're all wandering the same road all along

 

i couldn't wait to leave that town

and people who don't know me anymore
