The Way It Goes

Couldn't find it anywhere in Texas.
Looked every place I could find.
Scattered all over the state.
Lost my peace of mind.

Oklahoma was another thing.
Didn't stay there very long.
Side-eyed stares and grudges.
Thinking they been done wrong.

Avoided the law in Arkansas.
Even though I hit the gas.
Cooled it down with the Velvet Underground.
Passed all their state trooper traps.

In Tennessee, no need to stop in Memphis.
That place has slowly died.
Guess they never got over Elvis.
Don't think they ever tried.

Kentucky with its wooden fences.
Louisville looked a bit glum.
Indiana, heard about its basketball courts.
Don't think I even saw one.

Get me to Indian River.
Where the lake perch are fried up right.
Over near Mullett Lake.
Those North Michigan nights.

That's the way it goes.
That's the way it goes.
I'll be down the road tomorrow.
That's the way it goes.
