A Road Song

We're still in wisconsin as far as i know

Today was green bay and tomorrow chicago

Wish i was lying, but there isn't much to report

My phone is dying, so i've got to keep it short

I just wanted to say hey

I've been writing you a road song

It's a cliché, but hey

That doesn't make it so wrong

And in between the stops at the cracker barrel

And forty movies with will ferrell

I need some way to occupy my time

So i'm writing you a road song

I sure hope you don't mind

I bought you a light blue t-shirt last night

From some band i couldn't stand

But their logo's alright

Some kid threw a bottle on stage

He had an arm like a pro

I know it's getting late

I guess i should let you go

But did i happen to say hey?

I've been writing you a road song

Don't run away, 'cause hey

I promise it won't be too long

I know it's not what you call necessary

And i know that i'm no steve perry

But even if you roll your eyes and groan

I'm still writing you a road song

That you can call your own
