Song I wrote



In between these two lanes
and the pounding of the rain.
I hear the engine rattlin' on
as she coughs and complains.

You learn with these old choppers
you gotta wrench all the time.
Keep an eye on the oil gage
as you roll down the line.

It ain't about the shape that im in
it's all about where i am,
Eleven hours from Dallas
rippin' these roads on my Pan

Fill up that tank now
and see what the road has got to say
Checkpoint at the border
guess im going out of my way

Two wheels of fortune
depend on the hard working kind
Check the pressure at some truckstop
keep em' rollin' on time

It ain't about the shape that im in
it's all about where i am,
Eleven hours from Dallas
rippin' these roads on my Pan...
No it ain't about the shape that im in
it's all about where i am,
Eleven hours from Dallas
going about as fast as i can

You never know when you'll need it
and maybe someday you will
have to take that runaway ramp
while headed down hill

That's a chance im willin' to take 
when im out here alone
Gave my life to the highway
such a long time ago

It ain't about the shape that im in
it's all about where i am,
Eleven hours from Dallas
rippin' these roads on my Pan...
No it ain't about the shape that im in
it's all about where i am,
Eleven hours from Dallas
going about as fast as i can
