Stopping for gasoline
I jump back in my truck again
Roaring through the desert
South of Magdalena
The heat seeps in my skin
Whenever I get too terribly giddy
I see crosses
On the side of the road
Rattlesnakes eager to meet me
Cactus thirsty for blood
I sip on a bottle of Coke
And roll my tobacco
My windshield's a gravestone
For a million dead bugs
From the corner of my eye
I keep seeing
Them crosses
On the side of the road
Keep my eyes wide open
And my blood running strong in my veins
Please let me see my baby again
Things crawling and dying
Wind blowing everything, just surviving
Last cloud through here
Came and went months ago
Flowers of yellow and purple, they mesmerize you
Keep your eyes open and lock all of your doors
Be careful wherever you go
I keep seeing crosses
On the side of the road
Them crosses
On the side of the road
