Lyrics
Verse 1
Well I met me a pretty young woman who seemed to be my life's desire,
and the first time that she touched me she set my soul afire.
She told that she’d show me life beyond my wildest dream,
but the only thing she’s done to this point is to make me want to scream.
Verse 2
The first thing that she changed on me was the way that I wore my hair,
then came the slacks and the dress shirts silk britches for my derriere.
Then just when I thought I was her dream she sent me on my way,
down a one lane road to hell in my beat up Chevrolet.
Chorus
Now I’m slowin down and I’m shiftin gears and I’m tryin to find my way back home,
Cause I’m drivin just south of crazy and I’m wishin lord I was stoned.
So if by chance you cross my path please show me the right way,
to get off this one lane road to hell in my beat up Chevrolet.
Lead=1 verse
Verse 3
Well I swore off of love that day I was better off on my own,
without the chains and shackles I could ramble and I could roam.
The only problem I can see is I just ca’t find a way,
to get off this one lane road to hell in my beat up Chevrolet.
Repeat Chorus
Tag
I’m stuck on a one lane road to hell in my beat up Chevrolet.
