lyrics

Tank Full Of Gas
©Jerry Axson

Gonna' take a trip in the morning -
pack it up and headed down town,
too far away aint' far enough baby,
when you don't really want to be found,

Two broken hearts and a tank full of gas -
both hands on the wheel because I'm driving too fast,
I’ve got a head full of notion I won't get out alive -
drop the pedal to the metal and drive - drive - drive...

You were bored before we even got started,
I could tell by what fell out of your mouth,
it wasn’t hard to see that it wasn’t just me,
and you know what I'm talking about,

Two broken hearts and a tank full of gas -
we got nowhere to go and we’re going there fast,
I’ve got this pain in my Hanes creeping up my spine –
until it finds that sweet spot in the back of my mind…

I been thinkin’ about California –
get me some sunshine state,
this sap from these pines keeps screwin’ with my mind,
dropping sticky stuff all over my fate…

Two broken hearts and a tank full of gas -
I got no traction in the rear on this Carolina grass,
if “that was then” let’s let it rest in the past –
two broken hearts and a tank full of gas…

Two broken hearts and a tank full of gas…
I’m keeping both hands on the wheel because I drive too fast -
Two broken hearts and a tank full of gas…
I’ve got nowhere to go but I’m gettin’ there fast -
Two broken hearts and a tank full of gas…
No traction in the rear on this Carolina grass -
Two broken hearts and a tank full of gas…
That was then why don’t you just let it rest in the past???
in the past –
in the past –
in the past…

about

Jerry Axson Columbia, South Carolina

To me simplicity is the root of all great thoughts. The secret thrill for me, the architect, is delivering that thought with unobtrusive complexity. Writing songs and composing music satisfy my soul and because of this I know exactly what I am designed to do, it’s just that simple. - Jerry Axson ... more
