Six weeks on the road now, i'm feeling kind of spent
there's a few things i need and ones a friend
a few good games of pinball and a double whiskey sour
i'll rinse it with a beer and repeat again
You know i couldn't find you in the place you used to be
i'm a sucker for the old times, that's me
but i asked around the bar and they said you were gone for a couple of days
on a vacation in the drunk tank so they'd say
I saw that girl you used to know at the other end of the bar
i never thought she'd ever get that far
she said you two were through, it seemed you were driving for different things
i said i understood, i've wrecked that car
so now there's thirteen empty bottles, a glass or two or four
the lights came on we headed for the door
but the night was adolescent and she said she wanted more
and that's what she kept the apple blossom for
so up the stairs to her apartment with the christmas lights that blink
it's the second week of may but that'd be okay
except that under those blinking lights we opened a big old can of stink
and you smell it soon enough in one more day
