Pretty Good Year Songtext
von Steady Hands

6 A.m. on the Jersey Turnpike
It′s been a long year, and it's been a long night
In a fifteen passenger four-wheel drive
Everything I own is in the backseat ridin′

And I think it's gonna be a pretty good year

5 A.m. and we're still drinkin′
I′ve been so lonely, I've been thinkin′
I'd rather be drunk than alone in my bed
So I pour that whiskey out in my hand

And I think it′s gonna be a pretty good year


I sold my heart and crashed my car
My things, I let them go
Been out here on the road so long
I barely know my home
So give me freedom, give me death
Just give me somethin' more
I′m face down in a graveyard, screamin'
"What's this all, this all been for?"

And I lost my heart to a redhead maiden
In a crowded bar on the east of London
The miles, they beat into the side of my head
At 6 a.m., I′m on a flight to England

And I think it′s gonna be a pretty good year
