Tonight - Frank Foster

Another truck stop, another can of winter green

Gyspy woman dreaming on the passenger side

And my ol' band is passed out in van

With four hundred and

Fifty more miles to drive tonight

Another passing car another country star

Come across the midnight radio

Don’t sound like hank that’s probably why is ain’t frank

And the reason I’m still a chauffeur to my own show

And I’m running with devil

With my foot down on the pedal

Just trying to stay off the line

And I need the good lord and a whiskey

Momma to call just to say she missed me

To make this a little easier, long hard ride tonight

Another piece of southern poetry

Decides to cross my mind

And it will keep me occupied, keep my eyes open wide

And I’ll have another song before I reach the Tennessee line

And I’m running with devil

With my foot down on the pedal

Just trying to stay off the line

And I need the good lord and a whiskey

Momma to call just to say she missed me

To make this a little easier, long hard ride tonight

This old road I’m on

It’s dark it’s cold and it’s long

But I gotta keep driving on

Cause lord know I don’t want to die

I don’t want to die all alone

And I’m running with devil

With my foot down on the pedal

Just trying to stay off the line

And I need the good lord and a whiskey

Momma to call just to say she missed me

To make this a little easier, long hard ride tonight
