Road Buddy - Dar Williams[00:00:00]
We passed the stores we passed the hotels[00:00:12]
Filled our car with gasoline[00:00:15]
We drove that night I saw the moon[00:00:17]
Almost got us in an accident[00:00:20]
And then at the rest stop[00:00:23]
When that woman tried to steal my wallet[00:00:25]
It felt like an adventure[00:00:29]
Isn't that what you would call it[00:00:32]
Isn't that what you would call it[00:00:36]
You're my road buddy[00:00:42]
But I'm lonely all the time[00:00:45]
I thought that we'd be joking[00:00:48]
Having long talks on late night drives[00:00:50]
But you drive so bad I lost my patience[00:00:53]
So pass the chips and turn the station[00:00:57]
This is not a romance with the road[00:01:00]
Where the moss grows up the trees[00:01:13]
To where the dirt is rusty red[00:01:15]
I thought we'd find each story[00:01:18]
Like a snakeskin or an arrowhead[00:01:20]
But we only stop at fast-food places[00:01:23]
They hate their jobs I understand[00:01:26]
I try to act familiar[00:01:29]
But they're floating just above the land[00:01:31]
And we are all floating[00:01:37]
You're my road buddy[00:01:42]
But I'm lonely all the time[00:01:45]
I thought we'd show that[00:01:49]
Friendship could be stronger than the crossroads devil[00:01:50]
But I thought I heard the tollman sing[00:01:55]
I'll take that thing you got from me[00:01:57]
This is not a romance with the road[00:02:00]
And those cliffs are the same as in the magazines I have at home[00:02:07]
And the tall grass reminds me of the same dreams I had at home[00:02:12]
I thought life was a road[00:02:18]
And I wanted to begin it[00:02:21]
I said my friend and I going on a trip[00:02:25]
So I can only stop a minute[00:02:28]
We go to the vending machines[00:02:32]
I want to watch these kids with their mother[00:02:34]
Sipping on their juice boxes[00:02:37]
And smiling at each other[00:02:39]
And maybe that's their dad on the phone[00:02:43]
Saying hey mom you shouldn't wait go ahead have dinner[00:02:46]
Cause were running just a little late[00:02:50]
But we're on our way[00:02:58]
Road buddy road buddy road buddy[00:03:01]
I heard about the boxcars and the family of travellers[00:03:08]
But there's real estate signs in the cornfield stubble[00:03:13]
I know there's love I bet there's trouble[00:03:16]
But you just can't spend a lifetime on the road[00:03:19]
And there's something I finally faced[00:03:26]
I finally think I come from someplace[00:03:29]
This is not a romance with the road[00:03:32]
