The Dangers: Walking Highway 61

Tears cross the road sign
Looking hard for a change in weather

No time for a cigarette
Or a chance to sit with your photograph

Well…

I don’t want to be in the midday sun
Walking Highway 61
I don’t want to be in the midday sun
Walking Highway 61

Come on. Come on

Hard days of reckoning
And I’m making love to your pagan god

Time is a cigarette
And I’m holding things that I want to carry back

CHORUS

It was only recently
That I said I loved you
It was only eternally
That I knew I loved you

There’s no heart but a heart that really matters
Gets me so much trouble
Makes my fist get tighter

If you can’t see
If you can’t feel
The road is wide open
Road’s wide open

CHORUS
