Well it's been a long time coming
Looking for the neon glow
Been up and down the mountain
Wondering where the hell to go
And I been along every dirt road
Looking for the yellow haze
But I can't see it anywhere
To candlelight my way

I said mister can you help me
Can you possibly explain
Why the rooster on your chimney's
Pointing north the other way
He said you ain't from around here
Are you boys and I said no
Just keep on heading thataway
You ain't got far to go

Don't stop the car
No through road
Don't stop the car
No through road

We're forty odd miles from nowhere
And I don't know how to say
That we're all heading back
Along the road from where we came
Forty odd miles from nowhere and
The needle's in the low
Pete said how far now
I said we ain't got far to go

Don't stop the car
No through road
Don't stop the car
No through road
