BANDERA ROAD

How can I form a sentence
when I can't even fall in love
without lookin' down the business ends
of bottles and saxophones
How can I make this make sense
when there's no stories to tell
when really nothing ever happens
for a girl in San Antone

{chorus}
It's likely that you will even if you say you won't
It's likely that you will even though I say don't

And nobody plays jazz no more
'cept weekend college stations
when everyone else is hungover
and I'm already two-hours in
punches on the clock, signs on the door
some schmuck said it's a fine time to open
son of a scratches on a paper
prayin' nobody else comes in

{repeat chorus}

Stuck behind a produce truck
drawing circles on your hand
starin' at what must be a joke
all creepy smiling and red
wonderin' when you'll run out of luck
always tappin the worn out brakes
in this busy stop and go
just tryin to not get rear-ended

{repeat chorus}
