Driven up and down in circles; Skidding down a road of black ice. Staring in and out storm windows; Driven to a fool's paradise. But it's my turn to drive; Driven to the margin of error, driven to the edge of control. |

| One Headlight Performers: The Wallflowers Songwriter: Jakob Dylan Released: 21 May 1996 (Bringing Down the Horse) Description: Although the song itself is not about cars or driving, the title and key lines of the chorus are an automotive metaphor. Songwriter Jakob Dylan said that the lyrics reference “how the band were able to get through with their ideas despite being hindered (i.e. with one headlight) by the lack of support.” (Wikipedia) External Link: Wikipedia |
Hey, come on try a little, nothing is forever. There's got to be something better than, in the middle. But me and Cinderella, we put it all together. We can drive it home, with one headlight. |
| I’ve Been Everywhere Performer: Johnny Cash Songwriters: Geoff Mack · Hank Snow Released: 1996 External Link: Wikipedia |
I was totin' my pack along the dusty Winnemucca road; When along came a semi with a high an' canvas-covered load. “If you're goin' to Winnemucca, Mack, with me you can ride;” And so I climbed into the cab, and then I settled down inside. |
