lela's stars
Singer:hayes, walker
it's 3:42 a.m. eyes blood shot
yawning in my honda in a costco parking lot
waiting on the door to unlock so i can clock in early
and stock the cooler 'til i swear i need back surgery
wondering what the hell i'm doing with my life
wishing i was still in bed with my wife
scribbling lyrics on the side of a styrofoam cup
do my kids need their dad to grow up
or keep chasing the dream
look at the felt on my effed up ceiling
had to bum thumbtacks from my 9 and a half year old daughter lela
just to keep it from coming down
kinda like my tears when i count
it's just the roof of my car
it's just the roof of my car
i wish this coffee had a little maker's in it
that's less than twenty cents a minute
and it's food in the refrigerator
i'm gonna pick up this pen where i'm leaving off now
and get back to this song and show my children how to never give up
even when your check engine light is on
the future don't look bright but
it's like it's all going to be alright in the light of
it's just the roof of my car
it's just the roof of my car
all i saw was a bunch of thumbtacks
it's gonna be tough to get rid of this ride when the world gets my gift
cause i don't think they make new cars that come with
it's just the roof of my car
it's just the roof of my car
it's just the roof of my car
