| I’ve been livin' on truck stop coffee
|
| Cigarettes and vitamin C It’s a wonder that the Devil ain’t caught me I guess he’s tired of playin' hide and seek
|
| I’ve been drivin' like I’m struck by lightnin'
|
| I think about you, and I start to speed
|
| I might as well be playin' with matches
|
| In a trailer load of gasoline
|
| CHORUS:
|
| IF IT’S THE LAST THING I DO
|
| IF IT TAKES ME FROM TUPELO TO TIMBUKTU
|
| IF IT’S THE LAST THING I DO
|
| I’M GONNA DODGE EVERY ROAD BLOCK, SPEED TRAP, COUNTY COP
|
| TO GET MY HANDS ON YOU
|
| IF IT’S THE LAST THING I DO
|
| A box of chicken and a day old biscuit
|
| Ain’t nothin' left but a few old bones
|
| I oughtta stop, but I’m gonna risk it Caffeine got me chewin' Styrofoam
|
| Girl, I’m callin' out of Kansas City
|
| From a fillin' station telephone
|
| Just had to tell you what I’ve been thinkin'
|
| First thing I wanna do when I get home
|
| REPEAT CHORUS
|
| Well, I’ve been drivin' like I’m struck by lightnin'
|
| I think about you, and I start to speed
|
| I might as well be playin' with matches
|
| In a trailer load of gasoline
|
| REPEAT CHORUS
|
| If it’s the last thing I do If it’s the last thing I do Ah, yeah |
