I've never taken this curve
Driving 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
It flew away all by itself
So if ever you find it, my photo 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 and slide highway and I'm moving sideways
I'm loose, but my steering wheel's tight
Well my sixty-three Ford is a bull
She'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 my good Lord was with me tonight
Just riding beside me tonight
And now we're just talking, we're hitchhiking, walking
We'll see you in Concord tonight
And now we're just walking
We're hitchhiking, talking
We'll see you
In Concord
