The Last Chance Texaco (Live Acoustic Version)

A long stretch of headlights

That bends into I-9

Tiptoe into truck stops

And sleepy diesel eyes

Volcanoes that rumble in the taxi

And glow in the dark

Camels in the driver's seat

A slow, easy mark

But you ran out of gas

Down the road, a piece

And your battery went dead

And these cables don't reach

It's your last chance

You check under your hood

It's your last chance

She ain't soundin' too good

Your last chance

To trust the man with the star

You've found the last chance Texaco

The last chance

Well, he tried to be Standard

He tries to be Mobil

He tried living in a World

And in a Shell

He had a block-busted blonde

Loved her free parts and labor

She broke down and died

And threw all the rods he gave her

This one ain't fuel injected

Her plug's at disconnected

She gets scared and she stalls

But she just needs a man, that's all

It's her last chance

Her timing's all wrong

Her last chance

She can't idle this long

Her last chance

Turn her over and go

Pullin' out of the last chance Texaco

The last chance

Yeah, yeah
