about

A song about a band in a van -- a traveling tune, a road song.

lyrics

Red-eye gravy won’t you save me
From the morning sun
This ol’ night is ending
And this new day has begun
I make my stand with a rockin’ band
In a fast van on the run
Red-eye gravy won’t you save me from
The morning sun

The show in Tuscaloosa it was looser than law
Woke up nearing Mobile to a crow out on the caw
We flew through Alabama, a quick fiddle on the draw
Made the scene in New Orleans, seen things you never saw

We went down to Memphis town when we got the blues
What a shock in Little Rock with nothing left to lose
We had to back track through Mackinac and Detroit felt like home
We spend the year shiftin gears, ramblin' on the roam

And it's one shift, two shift, three shift, four
Pull down the shade and lock up the door
Yellow light, red light, green light too
I’d drive all night to get home to you
(Oh you know its true)

In that City of Angels I swear we found a few
We got lost in Vegas where we found the devil too
From heaven to hell and back again, big city and little town
We raise a glass to each place we pass then put that hammer down’
