Graveyard Stickshift

Cruising vintage Galaxie down Highway 95
I feel alive
Was many years ago tonight I died
Chilling winds hit colder face
But I’m just here to race
Pick up the pace
Let’s get this shift in gear
It’s time to drive
I got the Devil in my rearview
Overtaken
I got the Devil in my rearview
I’m forsaken
Driving through the past that was
I see the world that is And could have been
I’m driving for your sins
Until I win
Been so long that I’ve forgotten
Am I heaven-sent
Or just hell-bent
This road to Hell’s blacktopped with good intent
I got the Devil in my rearview
Overtaken
I got the Devil in my rearview
I’m forsaken
Speak of the Devil
My rival arrives
Hands upon the steering wheel
'Cuz it’s all too real
And it’s time to drive
I overtake the underpass
But he’s still coming fast
Like in the past
But if my timing’s right
Tonight’s the night
Eighteen wheels oncoming
Are his chance at sleight-of-hand
Just as he planned
Again unanswered go The sins of Man
I got the Devil in my rearview
Overtaken
I got the Devil in my rearview
I’m forsaken
