Out on the highway in a broke down car
Feel like a bug in someones killing jar
Aint nothin’ for miles it’s too far to walk
Stuck between a hard place and a rock
Bye-bye
I told my baby Bye-bye
Bye-bye pretty baby
It’s my time to die
Out on the highway a broke down man
Feel like an egg in a frying pan
Took the road for granted was my only crime
Now old nine lives aint got no time
Bye-bye
I told my baby bye-bye
Bye-bye pretty baby
It’s my time to die
Out on the highway a broke down soul
Fool throwin’ dice lost it all in a roll
I can think of places I would rather be
I hope my baby comes looking for me
Drive by
I hope my baby drives by
Drive by pretty baby
It’s my time to die
Drive by
Baby please drive by
Drive by
Drive by pretty baby
It’s my time to die
