Everyone is hungry, baby
Everyone in sight
Everyone is groping, honey
In the middle of the night

Lies and altercations, Johnny
Federal Offense
Swinging for the bleachers, buddy
You hit the foul side fence

CHORUS
Rolling like a semi, brother
Diesel runnin’ low
Try to make your destination
Try to make the show

I see it on your face now sister,
Skin all fake and tight
You’re smiling like an alley cat, dear
And it doesn’t look quite right

And we all try to break it down
Into our religious code
We’re deluded by the thought that maybe one day
We will have payed back what we owed

CHORUS
You roll it like a joint now, sister
Breathe every page in deep
And wonder when the blues will fade out
And why the high won’t keep

BRIDGE
Lean, brother, lean
Get the weight off of your feet
Let the judgment overtake you
And then find the mercy seat
