Far Away Like A Radio

All broke down, comin' in low

Far away like a radio

Red lights flash, static and snow

Far away like a radio

I was ridin' shotgun with the driver

The lovers and the rounders

Come along with me to L.A.

Me and my bride

On a Greyhound back

She took a piece outta me

That I'll never get back

All broke down, comin' in low

Far away like a radio

Red lights flash, static and snow

Far away like a radio

Ghost in a shot glass

And lonely all around

Can't help but catch a buzz

When you come into this town

Darkness in a box

Man, you better send a scout

There's doors to keep you in

But none to let you out

All broke down, comin' in low

Far away like a radio

Red lights flash, static and snow

Far away like a radio

Head on my shoulder

And mouth just catchin' flies

Stranger outta stories

Has just talked himself dry

Half of him will make it to LA

By tomorrow

The rest of him will have to make

A beg, steal or borrow

One end of town

Laughin' at the other

They got ragin' home records

Makin' welfare mothers

Street hosed down

When the dawn breaks slow

Shinin' like a mirror

So all the shadows won't show

All broke down, comin' in low

Far away like a radio

Red lights flash, static and snow

Far away like a radio

All the happy endin's

That I've heard about

Stories left unwritten

We'll have to figure it out

All broke down, comin' in low

Far away like a radio

Red lights flash, static and snow

Far away like a radio

All broke down, comin' in low

Far away like a radio

Red lights flash, static and snow

Far away like a radio
