The Company I Can Get - The New Year

It felt so fitting

As I crossed the state line

As the last chord rang out

And the tape started to unwind

As my knuckles on the wheel

Made a perfect gun-sight

And each car that fell there

I could vanish from the light

But God knows I wouldn’t

I need all the company I can get

Even that redneck

In the red corvette

The highway takes

A toll on your soul

The odometer reads miles

Like time calling roll

In the broken road kill

It’s there in their eyes

Was I put here

To be food for the flies

God knows if I wasn’t

It’s for the company I can get

Even that redneck

In the red corvette
