Dan Colehour - This Time lyrics

Got the pavement pumping the heat off the street Through the souls of both of my shoes Tread's wearing thin but knows where i've been and all i stand to lose I've been buying time by the interstate on this roadway dock loading freight Some nights when the trucks run late i step out back and stare Off into that open sky and i dream about slipping away Hey baby that's me and you takin' a chance or two Going straight to the highway Just lie and listen to that engine burnin' Turnin' those four wheels just as fast as they can go And roll down the window and you might just feel the morning Blowing in from someplace that the likes of us will never know 'bout a mile down at the amoco Amy's 'hind the counter sellin' her soul To a nine to five job she don't wanna to know or care too much about She's just tryin' to make herself an easy buck She can roll into this old pick-up truck Gonna drive her into town and with a little luck we'll turn a head or two No the ride won't last too long but man, she won't care She just wants to feel the wind whipping through her long blond hair Going straight to the highway Just lie and listen to that engine burnin' Turnin' those four wheels just as fast as they can go And roll down the window and you just might feel the morning Blowing in from someplace that the likes of us will never know This town's gonna get us down if it gets up under our skin Yeah baby we were born to lose but we're bound to win Going straight to the highway Just lie and listen to that engine burnin' Turnin' those four wheels just as fast as they can go And roll down the window and you might feel the morning Blowing in from someplace that the likes of us will never know Oh yeah, the likes of us
