Steady At the Wheel - Ted Russell Kamp

Steady At the Wheel Lyrics

STEADY AT THE WHEEL
Ted Russell Kamp
Scattered through a hundred towns
ashes of a house that’s long burned down.
Dusk dumbs down another day.
I want to swallow up time and through it away.
Ch
Zero to sixty, it’s the next big thing.
They tell me it’s a steal.
Drive all night just to ease the pain, but don’t look away.
Stay steady at the wheel.
Try to sing an old familiar tune
bloodshot words on an acetate room.
Black light troubador push on through
when heartbreak sits right next to you.

Ch
Solo
Every day I’m farther away from here
turnpike truck stop rearview mirror.
Devil on my shoulder, hellhound on my trail,
but this highway gonna meet the horizon without fail
Ch
Alternate verses:
Push my load across the land
Living the life of a traveling man
Dusk brings down another day
I want to swallow up time and throw it away
Try to sing a familiar tune
Howling the words under a bloodshot moon
Black light troubador push on through
When heartbreak sits right next to you
