Truck Stop Special

The first time I saw it
It happened so fast
I didn’t turn the other way
Although I never stood a chance

You said “don’t waste your life with
Your head in the sand”
You said “don’t waste your time
Son, on a fool’s errand”

Well, in this life, the rules you live by
It makes no difference, son, when it’s
Do or die
Oh! Your stone’s been weighed, the
Dye is cast
Your crow has come, judgment is
Passed, yeah!

But you can’t deny the accusations
When you got the red-stained hand
This life is one of temptation
Best walk away while you can

You can’t live your life, no, with your
Head in the sand
You can’t waste your time, son, on a
Fool’s errand, yeah!
On a fool’s errand

Enough money to drown in, enough
Rope to hang
Trouble’s the way I’m living, child
But it ain’t nothing
I’ll educate you, boy, I’ll show you
How to be
To never want nothing, son, and
Take all you need, yeah!

But you can’t deny the accusations
When you got the red-stained hand
This life is one of temptation
Best walk away while you can

You can’t live your life, no, with your
Head in the sand
You can’t waste your time, son, on a
Fool’s errand, yeah!

Well, this life, it’s a dead end street
Cold, dark and lonely, straight
Fucking mean
A race to the end, whoever gets
There last
Suffers from the sorrow of losing all
They had...

A fool’s errand
A fool’s errand!
