Wear Out The Turnpike Lyrics - Jim Croce

There's ice and snow on the northern roads 

And the Jersey Pike is closed 

Have to go and do some drivin' tonight 

They say I'd be a fool if I would ride those icy roads 

But a little storm ain't stoppin' me tonight 

I'm gonna wear out the turnpike 

Rack up those miles 

Keep this rig a rollin', I'm in it every mile 

'Cause she's in Oklahoma and I'm up in Maine 

So diesel, sing a song that will bring me home again 

Doodle doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo 

Doodle doo doo doo

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

There's a red light turnin' behind me 

There's a trooper on my tail 

I can tell I won't get to New York town on time 

If he decides to pull me over 

And if he gets me on the scale 

I'm gonna have to tell a tale or take a fine 

I'm gonna wear out the turnpike 

Rack up those miles 

Keep this rig a rollin', I'm in it every mile 

'Cause she's in Oklahoma and I'm up in Maine 

So diesel, sing a song that will bring me home again 

Doodle doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo 

Doodle doo doo doo 

With the snow against my windshield 

I will run on through the night 

There's not stoppin' me once I hit the road 

'Cause the turnpike's like my second home 

And I know it like my hand 

So diesel, sing a song that'll bring me home again 

I'm gonna wear out the turnpike 

Rack up those miles 

Keep this rig a rollin', I'm in it every mile 

'Cause she's in Oklahoma and I'm up in Maine 

So diesel, sing a song that will bring me home again 

Doodle doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo 

Doodle doo doo doo
