Thinkin’ & Drivin’ Lyrics by Matt Schuster
Been tryin’ not to give a damn
But I’m off the nicotine
I’m turnin’ to a man
Who’s just mad at anything
And no one understands
Or cares, I guess, it seems
It’s getting out of hand
And I’m breaking at the seams
Tonight, I’m starin’ at the mirror
And I’m feeling brand new things
I’m in and out of fear
And I kinda wanna scream
I need to disappear
And go let off some steam
So I set down my beer
And I go to turn the key
But I ain’t on anything
Hell, not even the Adderall
The doc told me to take
To keep my head from wanderin’ on
This lonely inner state of mind
So here I am tonight
But I swear I ain’t DUI’in
I’m just thinkin’ and drivin’
I got stopped on 57
State trooper, ex-marine
He said, “I ain’t buyin’ there what you’re sellin’
I saw you cross all six lanes, so
Just do me a favor and step out of the Bronco
I’m gonna go sit you down in the Tahoe
Just give me a second”
I keep cool and collected
But deep down, I’m stressed out, I’m beggin’, I’m beggin’
I ain’t on anything
Hell, not even the Adderall
The doc told me to take
To keep my head from wanderin’ on
This lonely inner state of mind
So here I am tonight
But I swear I ain’t DUI’in
I’m just thinkin’ and drivin’
I got off crystal clear
My record just the same
‘Cause I set down that beer
Best call I ever made
But I ain’t on anything
Hell, not even the Adderall
The ‘Rall, the other *** I mixed
The one night I went wanderin’ off the road
I’ll tell you this
Tonight, it may not seem like so
But I swear I ain’t DUI’in
I’m just thinkin’ and drivin’
There, you caught me thinkin’ and drivin’
