The Last Chance Texaco |
A long stretch of headlights |
Bends into I-9 |
Tiptoe into truck stops |
And sleepy diesel eyes |
Volcanoes rumble in the taxi |
And glow in the dark |
Camels in the driver’s seat |
A slow, easy mark |
But you ran out of gas |
Down the road a piece |
Then the battery went dead |
And now the cable won’t reach… |
It’s your last chance |
To check under the hood |
Last chance |
She ain’t soundin' too good |
Your last chance |
To trust the man with the star |
You’ve found the last chance Texaco |
Well, he tried to be Standard |
He tries to be Mobil |
He tried living in a world |
And in a shell |
There was this block-busted blonde |
He loved her — free parts and labor |
But she broke down and died |
And threw all the rods he gave her |
But this one ain’t fuel-injected |
Her plug’s disconnected |
She gets scared and she stalls |
She just needs a man, that’s all |
It’s her last chance |
Her timing’s all wrong |
Her last chance |
She can’t idle this long |
Her last chance |
Turn her over and go |
Pullin' out of the last chance Texaco |
The last chance |
