Slammin' On The Brakes

(Spencer P. Jones)

Someone tell me what I did so wrong

To make me feel so lousy for so long

I keep my muscles caged inside my arm

As I ride out of the calm into the storm

I get to thinking about it

I guess its fate

But the day is long and the road is winding round

I missed the sign to find another town

An empty tank of gas is all I found

And the time seems right for putting my foot down

I get to thinking about it

I guess its fate

But my friends have gone

My moneys blown

I made a big mistake

The night is coming out again

I'm stepping on the brakes

Please show me the way back home

I'm ready for that now

I've used up all my good luck anyhow

Someone tell me what I did so wrong

And why I can not find my way back home

Now the dust has cleared I'm standing all alone

I cannot find a place to call my own

I've been thinking about it

I caused it myself
