Ogallala (Brendan Benson Mix)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the headlights, a semi jackknifed
I felt alright when they shut down I-80
Pulled over to the shoulder
Took a winterlude in a snowed mood
I saw a movie, An Unexpected Journey
I felt like Martin Freeman when he was first leaving
Now I'm waitin' for the road to thaw
I'm waitin' for the road to thaw
In a town called Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Oh oh, oh oh
Benny got the best rate at that Super 8
And I dreamt I'd skate with Sugar on the black ice
It felt like yesterday
Oh wait, it was
I was under the LA Sun
Wish I'd got to Omaha
Wish I'd got to Omaha
Not Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Oh oh, oh oh
I watchwd the news at nine
Saw a car that could've been mine
It was crushed like a can
Travel safe said the weatherman
Now I'm waitin' for the road to thaw
Wish I'd got to Omaha
Not Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Oh oh, oh oh
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Ogallala-la
Oh oh, oh oh
Wish I'd got to Omaha
Waitin' for the road to thaw
