Halfway Home

On clear days it's fast black dead west Sun on my cheek flat on my chest I'm warm driving with all the citizens" Halfway to work, halfway home And the radio says there's been a terrible accident Somewhere up by the waterways I do more driving before 8 o'clock Than most people do all day "But the work is honest and the customers human" Don't guess I could ask for more The kids are in college and my wife is buying Every single dress in the store And Me, halfway to work halfway home My doctor says my blood is pressuring me My mama says this love is measuring me Up each tick turned off The road ices long before the bridge Son just sit a while, and let the whiskey dull the edge "But the work is honest and the customers human" Don't guess I could ask for more The kids are in college and my wife is buying Every single dress in the store And me, halfway to work halfway home And me, halfway to work halfway home And me, I just sit in this bar And me, I just drive in my car And me I just stay in my head And me, I just sleep in this bed
