Kerouac

It’s a good few hours from our small town
To the edge of the world
We’re kicking dust in the face of the sun
Flying south like birds

A handful of rebels that ain’t gonna settle
This side of judgement day
We had to hit that highway hard
Cause it’s been cursing our names

Wild eyes, truck tyres, ding dong ditch on heaven’s door
From now, tonight, we’re all we couldn’t be before
We run away like sinners on holy ground
A sweet escape, doing Kerouac proud

*Passed here once in my grandpa’s truck
Back when I was eight
Not a cloud’s gone by in that warm blue sky
Wish I could say the same* <- NEW VERSE

We can all fall down right now if we want
Let them find us when we’re too far gone
Yeah

Wild eyes, truck tyres, ding dong ditch on heaven’s door
From now, tonight, we’re all we couldn’t be before
We run away like sinners on holy ground
A sweet escape, doing Kerouac proud

Wild eyes, truck tyres, ding dong ditch on heaven’s door
From now, tonight, we’re all we couldn’t be before
We run away like sinners on holy ground
A sweet escape, doing Kerouac proud
Doing Kerouac proud
Doing Kerouac proud




Michael - I added an extra verse - what do you think? Thank you, pleased you like the lyric!

Stan - I looked up ding dong ditch just now, and actually I found that it's commonly called that in the states, haha! Maybe you're just missing something LOL! Thanks for the comments, glad you like it overall.
