100 MILES FROM NOWHERE

Music & Lyrics Written By Howard Axtell

I woke up this mornin’, in the back seat of my car
Half a beer still in my hand and a cigarette stuck in my hair
The sign says I’m a hundred miles from where I’m supposed to be
I know she’ll worry, until she hears from me
I need to let her know, that I’m alive and well
But the way my head is poundin’ I can’t really tell

When I’m under pressure and feelin’ kinda low
I can’t find the answers, I’m needin’ to know
I can’t sleep, so I head on down the road
Some things start makin’ sense, 100 miles from home
She’ll never understand, what I’m gonna say
When I call her on the telephone, from 100 miles away

Cause I’m 100 miles down the road
100 miles from my home
When I’m feeling crazy, I just gotta go
100 miles from nowhere down an open road

Maybe I’ve been lucky, maybe I’m just good
Sometimes I wonder if I’ve done the things I should
Livin’ my life filled with passion and desire
Pushin’ the limits through the real high wire

I need to let her know, that I’m alive and well
But the way my head is poundin’, I can’t really tell

Cause I’m 100 miles down the road
100 miles from my home
When I’m feeling crazy, I just gotta go
100 miles from nowhere down an open road

When I’m feeling crazy, I just gotta go
100 miles from nowhere down an open road

I know, when I gotta go, 100 miles down an open road  (Multiple)
