Lyrics:
Donna, on the drive back
from Reno, Nevada.
You closed your eyes
and said to me,
"I want to feel lower temperatures,
I want to see fields of green."
All the while the music
was coming out of only one speaker.

Chorus:
I never had a choice
about the sound of my own voice.
You never had a way to live.

Treble was high,
I always keep the bass down low.
The rest stop sign said closed for season.
Passed construction workers
sitting and laughing.
Laughing always worries me
Makes me think I've done
Something wrong.

Chorus

School bus full of kids passed by,
giving me the middle finger.
I wish I had enough sense
not to look
not to let it
upset me so much.
Im never in the right place
At the right time
I don't know,
Maybe we ll get married
Move in with my cousins in New Jersey
I could quit the band
Maybe have a few children.

Chorus

There was a Magazine
between your legs
Opened to a celebrity's page
Who they just caught
bathing at the beach
When I die
Id like to be cremated
and mixed in with the tar
For the roads
So you can say
I helped build something
And I can say I built these roads
We're driving on.

I'm a functional alcoholic
because I get to work on time
but I need a drink
To get up on stage
Or to fall asleep each night.
I don't wear sunglasses,
I'm just afraid someone might think
I'm an asshole.
I read all the important novels,
forgot the plots,
but I get the feeling.

Chorus
I never had a choice
About the sound of my own voice
And you never had a way to live

Donna, I wrote this song while driving in a car
