I Probably Will

There's better grades of leather than what's wrapped 'round my steering wheel

But I still turn the corners that I need to

And there's a crooked crack crawlin' cross the left side of my windshield

But I still see all I'm 'bout to run into

And everywhere I stop I leave a black drop on the pavement

But not enough to keep me from runnin'

No I shouldn't ask of this engine what I do

I'd hate to wind up on the shoulder somewhere thumbin'

But I probably will

Ride these wheels until the rubber wrongs me

And I'll probably wind

Up on one side one night with some blue lights on me

Wishin' that I hadn't but still I probably will

These ragged rings and wrinkles I've collected over time

Make a reflection I'm not really all that proud of

And those headaches with the sunrise that you shake off around noon

Don't shake 'em off as soon

I ain't as young as I once was

And this nicotine I'm breathing and the kerosene I'm speaking

Slow me down a little at a time

I shouldn't ask of this body what I do

I'd hate to carve into this face another line

But I probably will

Fight how I feel until I don't feel like fightin'

Then lye before heaven and try

To hide all I've done so that some how I get forgivin'

Knowin' that I shouldn't but still

I probably will

Yeah I probably need

To rethink my speed and live a little less lethal

And I should break away from the things

That have made me one of my least favorite people

I probably ought to loosen the knot that I got all tied up inside me

And I should have some regrets

They ain't caught me yet but I bet they ain't far behind me

Changin's never easy but still

I probably will
