Another car is stopping for gas Be careful with that burning match The radio is playing Nat King Cole Nat King Cole sings Another stranger turns the wheel I stay behind in silence and feel The oil on overall and hands Is all that's left, all left for me Better late than never Here come the sunny days You keep your eyes wide open And all I say is Yes yes yes yes yes me too I'm ready for a kick in the back I'm ready for another hopeless wreck I'm ready for a night so long and black So long and black Better late than never Here come the sunny days I keep my eyes wide open Here come the best years of my life And all I say is Yes yes yes yes yes me too Another night of counting cars The magazines and candy bars And everybody's driving home They're home, home before dark
