It took two hours to drive out of post-quake l.a.

Where the freeway is sliced up like sheet cake

Got new tires Im not gonna worry

Got three days to go so Im not in a hurry

Get into tucson and what do I find

Im having some trouble just keeping my mind

On the 10.



Driving by that detour we took

To watch the sunset at the scenic overlook

The light was lovely but to my surprise

The most violent colors were in your eyes

All the reds and yellows, black and blue

Its what I remember from driving with you

On the 10.



On the 10.



Whoa oh, white noise and lightening

Ooooo on the radio, oh no.



Looking up a tree like a georgia okeefe

And the texas stars are in high relief

University road, you think Id have learned

So many new ways to get bitten and burned

At the devils river inn at three a.m.

Hey, give me those keys I gotta get

Back on the 10.



On the 10.



Whoa oh, white noise and lightening

Ooooo on the radio, go robert, go!



Feeling unbound of heart and breast

Got the visor down and Im headed west

A little wiser now, Im unimpressed

By the secret you and I confessed

On the 10 (whoa oh).



On the 10 (whoa oh)

On the 10 (whoa oh)

On the 10 (whoa oh).
