Dodge Aries Wagon - Ron Pope

Money gets spent, children grow old

Summer’s too hot, love runs cold

It’s a bitter pill to swallow, trust me I know

I’ve been almost everywhere you’re gonna go

Drove a nineteen eighty three Dodge Aries wagon with no A/C

Down that old New York thruway on our way back to the Garden State

Baby brother not old enough to shave

But he was rolling up a joint as Springsteen played

Takes one to know one and I know you

So don’t do anything that I would do

Don’t play dumb to comfort fools

Prove it to yourself, that’s all you gotta do

Ride your own train of thought to the end of the line

What’s the point of being loved if you’ve gotta live a lie?

Drove a nineteen eighty three Dodge Aries wagon with no A/C

Down that old New York thruway on our way back to the Garden State

Baby brother not old enough to shave

But he was rolling up a joint as Springsteen played

Takes one to know one and I know you

So don’t do anything that I would do

Why follow the leader?

Best to lead yourself

It’s an eye for an eye, but a cold day in Hell

When you’re not better off turning the other cheek

Don’t bring a knife to a dogfight, 'cause then everybody bleeds

Drove a nineteen eighty three Dodge Aries wagon with no A/C

Down that old New York thruway on our way back to the Garden State

Baby brother not old enough to shave

But he was rolling up a joint as Springsteen played

Takes one to know one and I know you

So don’t do anything that I would do
