Lyrics
Mile marker 203
The gas gauge leaning on the edge of E
And I'll be danged if the rain ain't pouring down
There's something smokin' underneath the hood
It's a bangin' and a clanging and it can't be good
And it's another 50 miles to the nearest town
Everything I own is in the back in a Hefty bag
I'm outta cigarettes and I'm down to my last drag
I'd sure hate to break down here
Nothing up ahead or in the rearview mirror
Out in the middle of nowhere knowing
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rolling
God help me, keep me moving somehow
Don't let me start wishing I was with him now
I've made it this far without crying a single tear
I'd sure hate to break down here
Under 50 thousand miles ago
Before the bad blood and busted radio
You said I was all you'd ever need
But love is blind and little did I know
That you were just another dead-end road
Paved with pretty lies and broken dreams
Baby leavin' you is easier than being gone
I don't know what I'll do if one more thing goes wrong
I'd sure hate to break down here
Nothin' up ahead or in the rearview mirror
Out in the middle of nowhere knowin'
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin'
So God help me, keep me moving somehow
Don't let me start wishing I was with him now
I've made it this far without crying a single tear
And I'd sure hate to break down here, oh no
I'd sure hate to break down here
Nothin' up ahead or in the rearview mirror
Out in the middle of nowhere knowing
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin'
So God help me, keep me moving somehow
Don't let me start wishing I was with him now
I've made it this far without cryin' a single tear
I'd sure hate to break down, it's too late to turn around
And I'd sure hate to break down here
