Headed up to Crete, Nebraska
Trying my best to set the highway on fire
But my bicycle won't go no faster
Tarkio Road is a mother
It's just like, oh, so many others
Well, the children reject you
And the police inspect you
Looking inside the trunk
Under the hood, hoping to find
The secret places where you
Always keep your mind
Whoa, whoa, no, Tarkio Road
Having a room or lying in jail
Learning 'bout the
Price of being free
Trying to live a constitutional life
But being held back by hypocrisy
Carry the load, my brother
You're jost like, oh, so many others
Ooh, the children reject it
And the police inspect it
You're tied to the chair
Better cool it, bound and gagged
Is that the ways on the American flag
Whoa, whoa, no, carry the load
I'm singing Tarkio, Tarkio Road
Tarkio, Tarkio Road
Tarkio, Tarkio Road
Tarkio, Tarkio Road
If you're looking for some trouble
You can find it on the Tarkio Road
Twenty-four hours above our fence
Fifty-five years of pollution
Everyone knows how the puzzle was laid
But can anyone recall the solution
Tarkio Road is a mother
It's just like, oh, so many others
Well, the people infect you
Well, they never elect you
No reason to cause that you
May have perfectly sound
The blind looker's gonna
Try to put it down
Woah, whoa, no, Tarkio Road
I'm singing again
Tarkio, Tarkio Road
Tarkio, Tarkio Road
Tarkio, Tarkio Road
Tarkio, Tarkio Road
If you're looking for some trouble
You can find it on the Tarkio Road
Moving on down the Tarkio Road Headed up to Crete, Nebraska Trying my best to set the highway on fire But my bicycle won't go no faster Tarkio Road is a mother It's just like, oh, so many others Well, the children reject you And the police inspect you Looking inside the trunk Under the hood, hoping to find The secret places where you Always keep your mind Whoa, whoa, no, Tarkio Road Having a room or lying in jail Learning 'bout the Price of being free Trying to live a constitutional life But being held back by hypocrisy Carry the load, my brother You're jost like, oh, so many others Ooh, the children reject it And the police inspect it You're tied to the chair Better cool it, bound and gagged Is that the ways on the American flag Whoa, whoa, no, carry the load I'm singing Tarkio, Tarkio Road Tarkio, Tarkio Road Tarkio, Tarkio Road Tarkio, Tarkio Road If you're looking for some trouble You can find it on the Tarkio Road Twenty-four hours above our fence Fifty-five years of pollution Everyone knows how the puzzle was laid But can anyone recall the solution Tarkio Road is a mother It's just like, oh, so many others Well, the people infect you Well, they never elect you No reason to cause that you May have perfectly sound The blind looker's gonna Try to put it down Woah, whoa, no, Tarkio Road I'm singing again Tarkio, Tarkio Road Tarkio, Tarkio Road Tarkio, Tarkio Road Tarkio, Tarkio Road If you're looking for some trouble You can find it on the Tarkio Road Explain Request ×
