(HofstedeKloetStips - Hofstede)

Another car is stopping for gas

Be careful with that burning match

The radio is playing Nat King Cole

Nat King Cole sings

Another stranger turns the wheel

I stay behind in silence and feel

The oil on overall and hands

Is all that's left, all left for me

Better late than never

Here come the sunny days

You keep your eyes wide open

And all I say is

Yes yes yes yes yes me too

I'm ready for a kick in the back

I'm ready for another hopeless wreck

I'm ready for a night so long and black

So long and black

Better late than never

Here come the sunny days

I keep my eyes wide open

Here come the best years of my life

And all I say is

Yes yes yes yes yes me too

Another night of counting cars

The magazines and candy bars

And everybody's driving home

They're home, home before dark
