Tonopah
Stand's up
Throttle crackin'
Buckin' down 95
My tank is empty
My ass is numb
And I'm pullin' bugs out my eyes
Well that sign said
Gas and lodging ahead
So I pulled myself
Up to the station
To top off and rest my head
I inquired within
About a place to stay
But with a toothy grin
And her hand on her chin
She said you'd best be
On your way
And she said
People only come through here
To escape the past
Or it's where their car broke down
Cause their luck doesn't like to last
So I now implore you
To forget what you just saw
Remember one turn leads to freedom
But the other
To Tonopah
Killed the motor
Leaned her over
Pipes give me a burn
Welcome rug
Coffee mug
And hot brew in the urn
As we stood there
In the darkness of the lobby
I felt
That a smile in the shadow saw me
Oh and then he emerged
Without no sound
I asked this figure
What realm have we found?
And he told us that
People only come through here
To escape their past
Or it's where their car broke down
Their luck don't like to last
So I now implore you
Forget all that you saw
Cause one turn led to freedom
But the other
To Tonopah
Tonopah?
Tonopah!
Wait, we can leave Tonopah
Tonopah!
We're stuck in Tonopah?
Yeah, Tonopah
Oh God, Tonopah?!
Tonopah!
No, not Tonopah!
Tono! Pah!
Tonopah?!
You belong
To Tonopah!
