The Driving Blues #7 (explanation #3)

from Roger Manning (RM4) by Roger Manning

lyrics

did they tell you
how charmed I was?

down with QT in missouri
beautiful buttes in moonlight
driving like an asshole through idaho
I know I'm headed for shit
but what can you do?

future worrying's
never worked for me
it's important to see the light
but no point in staring at the sun.

I've lost that desperate feeling
got sucked up off my little raft
by aliens
what a relief not being
in-love all the time.

downtown friends
ain't got much shelf life
emotional anorectics.
who loves you
is who
comes to carry you home
from your cross.

I've got a million stories
how many do you want?
Important books in the trash
laying in wait
library of fate
laying in wait
for you to
carry them home.

did they tell you
how charmed I was?
...blown away.


Down with QT in Iowa City
Butte in moonlight
...I've lost that desperate feeling.
