Brewer & Shipley Tarkio Road Lyrics

Movin' on down the Tarkio Road
Headed up to Crete Nebraska
Trying my best to set the highway on fire
But my bicycle won't go no faster
Tarkio Road is a mother
It's just like oh so many other
Where the children reject you
And the police suspect you
Looking inside the trunk under the hood hopin' to find
The secret places where you always keep your mind
Woah woah no Tarkio Road

Abby and rube been lying in jail
Learning 'bout the price of being free
Trying to live the constituional life
But being held back by hypocrisy
Carry the load my brother
Your just like oh so many other
Who the children reject it
And the police suspect it
Your tied to the chair manacled and bound and gagged
Is that your face on the American flag
Woah woah no carry the load I'm singing Tarkio Tarkio Road
Tarkio Tarkio Road
Tarkio Tarkio Road
Tarkio Tarkio Road
If your looking for some trouble
You can find it on the Tarkio Road

24 hours of barbed wire fence
55 years of pollution
Everyone knows how the puzzle was laid
But can anyone recall the solution
Tarkio Road is a mother
It's just like oh so many other
Where the people infect you
But they never elect you
No reason or cause that you may have perfectly sound
The blind look is gonna try and cut it down
Woah woah no Tarkio Road

I'm singing again Tarkio Tarkio Road
Tarkio Tarkio Road
Tarkio Tarkio Road
Tarkio Tarkio Road
If your looking for some trouble
You can find it on the Tarkio Road
