As strong as the day was long
Rosemary would sing along
Wheels rolling steady down the way
The ashtray it would fill up twice
The windows down felt nice
As miles stretched the twilight of the day
Driving up by 55
Mississippi zooming by
Salvation in the cool November air
I’m searching for the mixture
That could paint a pretty picture
Of the wind blowing through Rosemary’s hair
Her daddy always said she was the one
Who made the light stars could wish upon
Rosemary with a Bible and a gun
I was more than smitten
By the words as they were written
And the opportunities awaiting there
Our time was etched and promised
Til the truth came down upon us
Descending all our hopes into despair
Rosemary would sing along
Wheels rolling steady down the way
The ashtray it would fill up twice
The windows down felt nice
As miles stretched the twilight of the day
Driving up by 55
Mississippi zooming by
Salvation in the cool November air
I’m searching for the mixture
That could paint a pretty picture
Of the wind blowing through Rosemary’s hair
Her daddy always said she was the one
Who made the light stars could wish upon
Rosemary with a Bible and a gun
I was more than smitten
By the words as they were written
And the opportunities awaiting there
Our time was etched and promised
Til the truth came down upon us
Descending all our hopes into despair
