Lyrics Road Regrets - Dan Mangan

Road Regrets

We drive until the gas is gone
And then walk until our feet are torn
Crawl until we feed the soil
Film the whole thing
It’s all business in the left-hand lane
Drive there and then drive back again
Escape can’t be the only way
To escape
So I’ve gotten used to coffee sweats
Still getting used to road regrets
And hell I took you up on all your threats
To leave
It’s a shame
It’s a crying shame
Them’s the breaks
And ain’t it always the way
That takes you back to from where it is you came
And Robbie likes his country tunes
It’s never been the lens that I see through
But I guess driving for a week or two
Puts words in your mouth
So find dodge and then get out of it It’s about as country as I get
So you ain’t living 'til you’re living it Not dead 'til you die
But watch out for the paraphrase
'Cause they will crown you and they will take your legs
See the gas is more than what you get paid
But do it anyway
It’s a shame
It’s a crying shame
Them’s the breaks
And ain’t it always the way
That takes you back to from where it is you came
It’s a shame
It’s a crying shame
Them’s the breaks
And ain’t it always the way
It takes you back to from where it is you came
