Gettin’ Nowhere Lyrics by Cody Lohden
Well, it’s a fastball world
But I like to keep it slow like Mayberry
When my aiming gets a little too unsteady
And I need to unwind before I’m outta my mind
The only thing I know to do
Is the only thing that gets me through
I take my truck and throw it in drive
Turn up some dirt I’ve turned a few times
Roll down my windows, crank it on up
Sip a little whiskey from a Dixie Cup
I put the hammer down on that stretch
Mile after mile ’til I clear my head
Burn up some gasoline ’til I don’t care
I ride in this truck gettin’ nowhere
Gettin’ nowhere
Well, this windshield glass
Is like a canvas when these Mickey T’s get to spinnin’
Out in the backwoods, keepin’ Main Street in the distance
Between all the pines, no destination in mind
Yeah, every time I twist the key
These four wheels take a hold of me
And I take my truck and throw it in drive
Turn up some dirt I’ve turned a few times
Roll down my windows, crank it on up
Sip a little whiskey from a Dixie Cup
I put the hammer down on that stretch
Mile after mile ’til I clear my head
Burn up some gasoline ’til I don’t care
I ride in this truck gettin’ nowhere
Gettin’ nowhere
I’ll burn the tread off these tires and the weight off my shoulders
Going ’round this town over and over
I take my truck and throw it in drive
Turn up some dirt I’ve turned a few times
Roll down my windows, crank it on up
Sip a little whiskey from a Dixie Cup
I put the hammer down on that stretch
Mile after mile ’til I clear my head
Burn up some gasoline ’til I don’t care
I ride in this truck gettin’ nowhere
Gettin’ no, gettin’ no, gettin’ nowhere
Gettin’ no, gettin’ no, gettin’ nowhere
