Jim Wirt - I Woke Up in a Car lyrics

[Verse 1] I woke up in New York City From my sleep behind the wheel Caught a train to Poughkeepsie And time stood still She wrote me a letter from San Diego To qualify her luck These flights connect through Arizona But I think I'll stay stuck [Pre-Chorus] So here I am Here I am, whoa [Chorus] Well I woke up in a car I traced away the fog so I could see The Mississippi on her knees I've never been so lost I've never felt so much at home Please write my folks and throw away my keys [Post-Chorus] I woke up in a car I woke up in a car [Verse 2] I met a girl who kept tattoos For homes that she had loved If I were her I'd paint my body Until all my skin was gone She wrote me a letter As we pa**ed through Rockford She said she won't forget And maybe I do, maybe I don't But I know I haven't yet [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Post-Chorus] [Bridge] And maybe I could live forever If not ever I had known That you'd be waiting there whenever I am all alone [Pre-Chorus 2] But here I am, whoa [Chorus] [x2] [Post-Chorus] I woke up in a car
