Signs of the Road

Up

On luck you are

You take your car

And drive away

Going Down

To Tennessee

You packed your dreams

Your resume, stay

Backpocket ready

Ready to shoot

Shots going steady

You made a killing

Gave up a living

Back in the city

And all you can see

Signs of the road

Of the places

Yet to go

We didn't know

There's a line

And a fine

You could pay

When you're getting there too slow

Oh, they want your soul

Yeah, they want us all

Sleep

In avenues

New city blues

Won't leave the room

Play

The game of fools

Now you know the rules

No win or lose

Yeah, they want us all

Signs of the road
