Petey & the True Mongrel Hearts featuring Graham Norwood. A brand new song, never played live!

lyrics

LITTLE LEEWAY (words & music by Pete Cenedella, all rights reserved)

Now your pride finds you on the freeway
With your silver wings of morning torn and gray
You just need a place to find a little leeway
Like an engine rolling home another day

So you draw another card and start to bluffin’
Yeah, you’re holding back the staggers and the strays
When your deal goes down, you know you’re holding nothing
Yeah, you’re lucky if they let you walk away

Well, I don’t know what you think you were doing anyway,
Holding back the anger and the pain
And I don’t know who you think you were foolin’ anyway
You’re just a rusted engine in the rain

Now your heart is torn between the life you’re leavin’
And the wandering that winds you on your way
Derailed, deranged, disheveled, unforgiven,
Dissatisfied no matter what she say.

Now you’re a reckless rolling stone beyond redeeming,
Never realized the lives with which you played
You’re the Jack of Clubs dressed like the King of Diamonds
On the road you’re gonna meet your Ace of Spades
Ooh, your heart is all you got to guide your way
Ooh, the road is all you got
Ooh, the road.
