Darlin', I'm a'comin' down Route number sixty-seven I just got off the turnpike Avoiding the Ohio State inspection Johnny Law followed me up the road Then he turned off and he let me go I guess this old truck ain't worth shuttin' down Your voice last night on the telephone Said you wouldn't be there when I got home So when I get to Cleveland I'm gonna head back south The light keeps comin' on I got water in the fuel My brakes are gone I got a left front tire throwin' thread By tomorrow morning I could be dead Baby, maybe, you've been right all along You said you couldn't stay With a man who was always gone away All you wanted to do was to settle down You wanted to buy that little trailer Out on the edge with the money you'd saved It had a carport, a colour TV And no place to turn around The light keeps comin' on I got water in the fuel My brakes are gone I got a left front tire throwin' thread By tomorrow morning I could be dead Baby, maybe, you've been right all along Remember that winter when the lake froze over We drove out there after we'd unloaded We revved that truck and we spun it 'round and 'round Then we left it idlin' out on that ice Crawled in the sleeper and I held you tight Baby, I'm sure on thin ice now The light keeps comin' on I got water in the fuel My brakes are gone I got on left front tire throwin' thread By tomorrow morning I could be dead Baby, maybe, you've been right all along Baby, maybe, you've been right all along
