rebecca drives a beat up
ford pick up truck
its the only one you ever see in town
the rear view mirror is broke
and now lies on the floor
so when she looks behind she casts here eyes down
you sit there in silence
as she tries to explain
the strange ways here mind tends to go
and though the front seat's small
it's such a mess in there
you could lose anything and you would never know
once i loved her
she'll drive you round the highways
past towns with strange names
you count the times you let her down you don't got enough fingers
she'll tell you she misses you
without lookin in your eye
you tell her you hate this town yet you still linger
she'll drop you at your house
and you'll fumble with the door
you have to slam it hard to keep it shut
and as she drives away
you feel yourself shake
its a cold night with a run of bad luck
