lyrics

I'm gonna drag the road 'til the caffeine lets me go
Dream another song for my ex lover
Slip away to Graceland on the radio
When I hand the van keys back to another

I hum and whine like a railroad track
Back to where I came before the cold November snow
Put me on faux-leather, put me on my back
I'm gonna sleep beneath the black of North Ontario

Oh ex lover I cannot deny it
I need restitution in a long, dark time
Oh ex lover I don't want to hide it
I cannot feed your fire if I can't feed mine

All this cryin' when I let you go
I had my troubling lyin' to you when I choke
and I's a little shaky when I told you I was done
Cause you won't like my reasonin'

Standing on the corner with a nozzle in my hand
Freezing 'neath the light of one more Petro-Can
Trying to make it big in a rock and roll band
Is like trying to talk the frostbite out my cold cold hands

Oh ex lover I cannot deny it
I need restitution in a long, dark time
Oh ex lover I don't want to hide it
I cannot feed your fire if I can't feed mine

All this cryin' when I let you go
I have my troubling lyin' to you when I choke
cause I's a little shaky when I told you I was done
You won't like my reasonin'

Señorita, spanish roses
Springsteen had a way with women that I don't
When I leave impressions of the girls I used to roll with

I couldn't find the details I was looking for
I find home in the arms of every open door
I promise I won't run straight to another
If I couldn't make the time for you ex-lover

I cannot deny it
Baby I need someone just to feel alright
But oh ex lover I don't want to hide it
I cannot feed your fire, if this gun just ain't for hire

All this crying' when I let you know
I have my trouble lying to you when I choke
I'm gonna take some time, rolling like a railroad
Down the county line on down to Mexico
