Water In The Fuel - Kasey Chambers

Darlin' I’m a comin' down

Route number sixty-seven

I just got off the turnpike

Avoiding the Ohio State inspection

Johnny Law followed me up the road

Then he turned off and he let me go

I guess this old truck ain’t worth shuttin' down

Your voice last night on the telephone

Said you wouldn’t be there when I got home

So when I get to Cleveland

I’m gonna head back south

The light keeps comin' on I got water in the fuel

My brakes are gone

I got a left front tire throwin' thread

By tomorrow morning I could be dead

Baby, maybe you’ve been right all along

You said you couldn’t stay

With a man who was always gone away

And all you wanted to do was to settle down

You wanted to buy that little trailer

Out on the edge with the money you’d saved

It had a carport, a colour TV

And no place to turn around

The light keeps comin' on I got water in the fuel

My brakes are gone

I gotta left front tire throwin' thread

By tomorrow morning I could dead

Baby, maybe you’ve been right all along

Remember that winter when the lake froze over

We drove out there after we’d unloaded

We revved that truck

And we spun it 'round and 'round

Then we left it idlin' out on that ice

Crawled in the sleeper and I held you tight

Baby, I’m sure on thin ice now

The light keeps comin' on

I’ve got water in the fuel

My brakes are gone

I got a left front tire throwin' thread

By tomorrow morning I could be dead

Baby, maybe you’ve been right all along

Baby, maybe you’ve been right all along
