Lyrics

Time to get off the highway
Find me a back way
I’m learning how to live right
Trying to take a little break from life
I don’t know where
I don’t know when
I don’t know how
I don’t know why
All the sudden this music degree
Should've been in machinery
Well look at that I'm on the side of the road.
Thirty degrees and thirty years old
The alternator just crapped out
The guys in the back are passed out
Up until now we've had a pretty good time
Smooth roads and the people are fine
Now the van is getting fixed up
Lord knows I could use some some fixing, too
I'm keeping my tools sharp
I'm keeping wood stacked
I’m keeping my eyes open
For a deal on tires
No more alarm clocks
No more breaks and shocks
I’m just livin’ like a human
With my toes in the dirt
The sound guy was a feisty old bugger
He wasn't quite exactly a hugger
We found out quick his ears were shot
He kept saying “what” a lot
But the sound check was all gravy
He told us all about bands in the eighties
These types always come around
By the end we were laughing out loud
I'm keeping my tools sharp
I'm keeping wood stacked
I’m keeping my eyes open
For a deal on a banjer
Well no more alarm clocks
No more breaks and shocks
I’m just livin’ like a human
With my toes in the dirt
I think I'm kinda just floating along
When I'm happy I like to sing songs
When I'm sad I like to write ‘em on down
When I'm tired I dream about
When I get all worn from the road
I turn on John Prine he lightens the load
There’s something special about a damn good song
Makes you feel like there’s nothing wrong
I'm keeping my tools sharp
I'm keeping wood stacked
I’m keeping my eyes open for
For a deal on Cadillac
No more alarm clocks
No more breaks and shocks
I’m livin’ like a human
With my toes in the dirt
I’m just livin’ like a human
With my toes in the dirt
(Hell yeah)
