When I was just a kid
We didn't have much
Just a worn out pickup
A busted up truck
Yeah, alright
Daddy drove a deisel
Mama taught school
Daddy worked the bar
When the mortgage was due
Again
We keep on searching
For a straight line
In that old house out
On the railroad track
We keep on searching
For a way out of here
Tonight I'm going down
To the water tower
Ain't gonna complain no more
Tonight I'm gonna waste
Away my every hour
And the rain gonna pour
And the rain's gonna pour
Down on me
Pickin watermelons
In the mexican sun
Chase the flies away
When the work days done
A long long time ago
Driving up to canada
For christmas tree
For a truck full of memories
They don't comfort so much no more
We keep on searching
For a straight line
In that old house out
On the railroad track
We keep on searching
For a way out of here
Tonight I'm going down
To the water tower
Ain't gonna complain no more
Tonight I'm gonna waste
Away my every hour
And the rain gonna pour
And the rain gonna pour
Down on me
Down on me
Down on me
Going down on me
I think about and I lose my touch
I know it never used to mean so much
And my baby she'll be running out running out
I got something
Something to shout about
You get your motor up
You get your motor up
You get the motor up
You get the motor up
Motor up
Motor up
Motor up
Motor up
Motor up
Motor up
Baby, baby, baby, yeah
Alright
Down on me
Me and the fellas
Got nothing to do
But drink a few beers
And shoot a little pool
Down at duffy's tavern
We got a little band
Doing pretty good
I got the cutest little girl
In the whole damn neighborhood
Lord I love that woman
You keep on searching
For a straight line
In that old house out
On the railroad track
You keep on searching
For a way out of here
Tonight I'm going down
To the water tower
Ain't gonna complain no more
Tonight I'm gonna waste
Away my every hour
Tonight I'm going down
To the water tower
Going down
Going down
Tonight I'm going down
To the water tower
Going down
Tonight I'm going down
Tonight I'm going down
To the water tower
Going down
Tonight I'm going down
Going down
