Drivin’ Down a Dead End Street

Lucinda Williams, Betty Elders

[Verse 1]
His mama ran off when he was just a kid
So he never really knew her at all
Just a picture of a girl in a sad blue dress
Hangin' beside a cross on the wall

[Verse 2]
His daddy used to drive those eighteen wheelers
Now he drives the bottle deep into the night
He was always sayin', "Son, you're just no good
You'll never do anything right"

[Verse 3]
The screams and the bruises and the broken bottles
These were things he understood
From busted chairs to a broken heart
He got away as soon as he could

[Verse 4]
When he was just eighteen he got his very own gun
And shot a kid near a liquor store one night
He was all mixed up, he never understood why
He was only lookin' to prove his daddy right

[Chorus]
He was drivin' down a dead end street
He was never gonna get back on his feet
Somewhere deep down inside he knew
He was drivin' down a dead end street

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 5]
He was a lonely boy from the wrong side of town
His mama never put him first
No matter what he did it'd never be enough
He was hung up and strung out and worse

[Verse 6]
He learned to fight and he learned to run
And he learned how to take care of his blues
He didn't have a reason to believe in God
So he figured he had nothin' to lose

[Chorus]
He was drivin' down a dead end street
He was never gonna get back on his feet
Somewhere deep down inside he knew
He was drivin' down a dead end street
He was drivin' down a dead end street
He was never gonna get back on his feet
Somewhere deep down inside he knew
He was drivin' down a dead end street
He was drivin' down a dead end street
