lyrics

There's a stretch of road that leads to Misery,
The 45 that's heading to what seems to be the sea
In the woodland that I’ve known all of my life,
In a parking spot she punched me and told me she'd be my wife

I was beaten into love and into work
It was a prison where the guard would go berserk
If she found I'd turned my wages into beer
I was sleeping under blankets in my pick-up for a year

She's a rusting wreck and she's full of useless junk
She's got tons of garbage stuffed inside her trunk
I was broken down and beat, and out of luck
When she left, she took my money but she left my truck

She came home one night itching for a fight
Decked me with the knuckles of her right
Emptied out my wallet on the floor
Took all our money and kicked me as I lay beside the door

She's a rusting wreck and she's full of useless junk...

Well that truck's the only friend I ever had
A place to go when times were good or bad
8 cylinders that growled along the street
The only place that I could go to drink and fuck and eat

When the bruises went, the sun shone in the sky
It got better every day and time rolled by
I still live in my truck cos I preferred
To burn the cabin down cos it fuckin' stank of her

She's a rusting wreck and she's full of useless junk...
