lyrics

Work called to say come in early
The boss had me stay past three
My head gasket’s cracked, No brakes left in back
I could drive myself into a tree

I been here once, been here twice
Been here ten thousand times
Is it now? Is it then? Below zero again
I wish I could thaw out my dang mind
I wish I could take my life and hit rewind

All my coulda-beens and used-ta-bes hitched a ride
And they sure know how to change my tunes
It was too loud to slow down when I saw you in South
Walking your wiped-out bike on Portland Avenue

Remember it snowed like this last year
Or was that two thousand seven
I screwed it up then and I’d screw it up again
I wouldn’t be here now if I’d learned my lesson

Remember it froze like this last year
or was that twenty fourteen
another old soldier that wouldn’t start for me
another cold shoulder from Kansas City

Got no one to ride shotgun now but I leave the heat on
Just in case I'm dealt a better hand
So my smokes and my in-jokes keep me company tonight
I hope this year don’t suck as much as January has
