Just A Few Miles

Just a few miles to the border
Just a few miles maybe shorter
Just a few miles to go
Till I'm with you

Just a few miles to the border
Just a few miles maybe shorter
Just a few miles to go
Till I'm with you

Jack rabbit in the road
& I think he's dead
Tried to stop a semi
With his head
California printed backwards
On the space between his ears

Arizona's not the place for me
It ain't got no grass
It ain't got no trees
Just a bunch of sweaters
Pointing west telling me to leave

Just a few miles to the border
Just a few miles maybe shorter
Just a few miles to go
Till I'm with you

I'm driving so slow
Feel I'm stuck in first gear
Beam me up scotty
Get me outta here
I'm stuck behind a car
With the trailer at ??? Joe's

I blew my coup
So I passed 'em real fast
I got the CHP
They're crawling up my ass
I slip 'em a C note
So they busted me
& threw me in jail

Just a few miles to the border
Just a few miles maybe shorter
Just a few miles to go
Till I'm with you

My only phonecall & I made it to you
My only crime is being a fool for you

Just a few miles to the border
Just a few miles maybe shorter
Just a few miles to go
Till I'm with you
