Give Me A Full Tank And A Six Pack

                    Not a bad legacy for a guy who didn't get going until he was in his forties

The road snakes out of the city

The horizon opens up sky high wide

Hills covered in trees look pretty

Got the setting sun as my guide

The radio is down to a few stations

All of them feature oldies and country

Beach Boys Good Vibrations

A tired DJ for company

Singing along with high harmonies

Mangling Brian's genius

Out of tune out in the boonies

Mike's voice makes me envious

In the miles of endless prairies

The clean air makes you delirious

Off ramp for a service station

Fill 'er up

Trucker's bumper sticker decry's taxation 

Don't concern myself with that

Want to make another hundred miles

Be that much closer to the coast

There's a small town up aways

Be that much closer to the coast

There's a small town up aways

Dashboard is a drumset

Wish it had a bit more bass

BTO You ain't seen nothin' yet

Big Semi ahead sets the pace

Figure he knows the road is open

Not a trooper in sight

Be that much closer to the coast

There's a small town up aways

Be that much closer to the coast

There's a small town up aways

Tomorrow I may be feeling wistful

For that girl I left behind

Maybe that's me being wishful

There's truth about love being blind

And I've got a few miles to drive

Be that much closer to the coast

There's a small town up aways

Be that much closer to the coast

There's a new town up aways
