(to 4th of july, by shooter jennings. don't make fun of me, please.)
coasting down the highway watching as the skies roll by
life just another race but only rats can win or lose
but, boys, you can kiss my ass 'cause i'm the one who'll really win and not by running but stopping, forgoing the track entirely using the world as i find it, for beauty, not as a sideshow to the inside of a truck headed for hell
riding off the track don't forget to pick up passengers

coasting
down the highway
watching as the skies roll by
life
just another race
but only rats can win or lose
but, boys, you can kiss my ass
'cause i'm the one who'll really win
and not by running but stopping,
forgoing the track entirely
using the world as i find it,
for beauty,
not as a sideshow to the inside
of a truck headed for hell
riding
off the track
don't forget to pick up passengers
always
enjoy your time
so, when the gas runs out
it'll have been a real ride
