Driving Death Valley Blues

Well, I'm so tired of driving but here comes the highway

Don't wanna go cold Turkey

Ride with me Jesus, so high on the mainline

It's the last time I'll drive death valley

Remember her kiss is like kerosene

The rest of her only a memory

Don't feel so bad 'cause you made me

A picture so clear

A picture so clear that it's crystalline

Better run to the doctor, girl run to the medicine

Don't wanna go cold Turkey

I'll be your Napoleon be your crippled Alexander but

Don't wanna go up the country

Shame as nothing to hang it on

Except for this wreck that you made of me

A blackbird singin' a mourning song, sing along

Sing to the end of a century

Sing it

Well, I can't stand the thought of many more miles but

I don't wanna go cold Turkey

Here comes the highway can't you see what it made me

It's the last time I'll drive death valley

Remember her kiss is a kerosene

The exile lives in a memory

A scarecrow singin' a mourning song, so sing along

Sing to the end of a century

Are you still with me Jesus so high on the mainline?

Don't let me go up the country

Girl better run, better run for the medicine

Don't let me go cold Turkey

Don't let me go cold Turkey

Don't wanna go

Ohh
