Avett Brothers, The - In The Curve lyrics
rate meI've never taken this curve Drivin' this fast before A glowing stop sign But both lanes are mine No seat belts attached to my door Well my speed meter don't work So I'm going to guess ninety-five Well maybe I'll fix it And maybe I won't It depends on my being alive Well my bottle of bourbon is gone See it flew away all by itself So if ever you find it My photo will go behind it In memory of me on your shelf Well it's been raining all day And it's been raining all night A slip 'n slide highway And I'm moving sideways I'm loose but my steering wheels tight Well my '63 Ford Galaxy's a bull See it's four thousand pounds at least But metal surrenders When oak trees meet fenders And engines go through the front seat Well I lost control in the curve And a gas line broke in the wreck I walked from the ashes With just a few scratches My crucifix warm on my neck Well the good Lord was with me tonight Just ridin' beside me tonight And now we're just talking We're just hitch hiking walkin' We'll see you tonight
