lyrics

You get along with people
then u leave them behind
You don't put no money down
You dont may no never mind

Your fingers plot points across the map
It's hard to imagine that the world isn't flat
When all you see is a straight line
That connects you to a bar
And your next good time

It's a good time
All the time
When you own the road
Without spending a dime

You sleep with friends
You speed with freaks
And when they hit you with the bill
Man you show em yr cheek

You don't give a damn about the world around
All you can think about is the next town
Another batch of cows to milk
Another pinball game to tilt

Yeh you smile and hug and say how fun
And when it's all done you're back on the run
You don't put no stakes down
You don't sign no dotted line

You just hop in the van
And spit out a tooth
Put the pedal down
Light a doob, crack a brew

It's a good time
All the time
When you own the road
Without spending a dime

You sleep with friends
You speed with freaks
And when they hit you with the bill
Man you show em yr cheek
