Windshield time makes ya punch drunk Guilt hangs down like the West Texas stars Turn on the radio A white liner fall behind-er dot on a map and I'm looking west See your ghost on my breath And ya lie to yourself it's been going around It's the same old news mile marker blues Just want to come back home to you Mile marker blues Columbian sunrise greases the wheels The pedal's pinned to the floor Parking lot troubadour Just a tumbleweed caught in a fence Hang around 'til the wind kicks up again Just letting your soul drain out And ya lie to yourself it's been going around It's the same old news mile marker blues Just want to come back home to you Mile marker blues Looking at you stranger is like looking at myself Without a thing to prove seems so aimless And ya lie to yourself it's been going around It's the same old news mile marker blues Just want to come back home to you Mile marker blues
