DRIVIN' MY LIFE AWAY
(Eddie Rabbit)
EDDIE RABBIT (ELEKTRA 46656, 1980)
Also recorded by Sonny Fisher, 1981

Well, the midnight headlight
Find you on a rainy night
Steep grade up ahead
Slow me down makin' no time
Gotta keep rollin'
Those windshield wipers slappin' out a tempo
Keepin' perfect rhythm with the song on the radio
Gotta keep rollin'

[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away
Lookin' for a better way, for me
ooh, I'm drivin' my life away
Lookin' for a sunny day

Well, the truckstop cutie
Comin' on to me
Tried to talk me into a ride
Said, I wouldn't be sorry
But she was just a baby
Well, waitress pour me another cup of coffee
Pop me down, jack me up, shoot me out
Headin' down the highway
Lookin' for the morning

[Chorus]
