Route 9 Lyrics

My hands are shaking, about an hour to go

Route 9 come on and wind me home

Casey Kasem on the radio, I sing along to every song I know

Turn it up a little louder

"Late December in '63"

I ran out of dough, about an hour ago

I spent it all on some Doll I know

Don't you worry, see I've got a plan. I know a man and a favor I'm owed

I ain't growing any younger

I'm just running out of road

Before the sun sets I'll do my best

Meet me out where the road turns west

They're never gonna catch us at our best

You've got your dreams and your fancy things

I've got flowers and I've got schemes

We'll see our name in lights before this night is through

It's hard to steer through the rear view mirror

That damn curve came so fast

Every mile we've got ahead is another for the pile in our past

We'll never be younger

Than we are right now

Before the sun sets I'll do my best

Meet me out where the road turns west

They're never gonna catch us at our best

You've got your dreams and your fancy things

I've got flowers and I've got schemes

We'll see our name in lights before this night is through

Before the sun sets I'll do my best

Meet me out where the road turns west

They're never gonna catch us at our best

You've got your dreams and your fancy things

I've got flowers and a diamond ring

We'll see our name in lights before this night is through

We'll see our name in lights before this night is through
