lyrics

The windows are up
The tarps are cinched down
And it’s about time
I got out of this town
The radio’s moanin Miles and Trane
And I am learnin to drive in the rain.

Cause I’m headed out West
Any place it don’t snow
Where any sign of your face, a trace,
In a stranger’s shadow
Where the skies are all blue like Miles and Trane
And all I’ve got to do is learn to drive in the rain

See I was the coal miner’s lover
Underground and undercover
And that cold earth was ours to plunder
You as miner and I as lover
You as miner
And I as lover rode miles and miles on that coal train
And I am finally learnin to drive in the rain

The windows are up
The tarps are cinched down
And it’s about time
I got out of this town
