You want to drive that Cadillac, baby Burn up that highway all night And I can dig it, yeah, you know it sounds all right But everything comes with a price And that's how it goes Or so the story's been told You're breaking down under a heavy load But that's just the rules of the road! You roll out of Dodge and I'm tellin' ya, It ain't what you thought it would be The nighttime is cold, the rain's comin' down And It's so dark you can't hardly see And life ain't the game that it seemed to be When it all played out on your color TV The interstate line is just a moment in time on that drive to eternity And that's how it goes Or so the story's been told You're breaking down under a heavy load But that's just the rules of the road! And every time you pull off to the side And lay down to rest your weary head, You hear the cars go by in the deep of the night Rememberin' the things that you said... The road up ahead, y'all, it's dangerous With roadblocks that rise up in the way And just how deal with the changes will Determine the fines you're gonna pay So when you break down, you'd best have your tools And a flare (if you know what I mean) 'Cause standing alone on the side of the road It don't matter how loud you scream. And that's how it goes Or so the story's been told You're breaking down under a heavy load But that's just the rules of the road! T.J. Weiss 2005 Soul O'Pup Music (BMI) |
