The Last Thing I Do

(Album: Days Of Our Lives - 2004)

I've been living on truck stop coffee
Cigarettes and vitamin C
It's a wonder that the Devil ain't caught me
I guess he's tired of playing hide and seek
I've been driving like I'm struck by lightning
I think about you, and I start to speed
I might as well be playing with matches
In a trailer load of gasoline

[CHORUS:]
IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO
IF IT TAKES ME FROM TUPELO TO TIMBUKTU
IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO
I'M GONNA DODGE EVERY ROAD BLOCK, SPEED TRAP, COUNTY COP
TO GET MY HANDS ON YOU
IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO

A box of chicken and a day old biscuit
Ain't nothing left but a few old bones
I oughtta stop, but I'm gonna risk it
Caffeine got me chewing Styrofoam
Girl, I'm calling out of Kansas City
From a filling station telephone
Just had to tell you what I've been thinking
First thing I wanna do when I get home

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Well, I've been driving like I'm struck by lightning
I think about you, and I start to speed
I might as well be playing with matches
In a trailer load of gasoline

[REPEAT CHORUS]

If it's the last thing I do
If it's the last thing I do
Ah, yeah
