[Verse 1]
A
There’s a truck turned over on the highway
A
Flares burning out of the snow
A
Freezing rain in the passing lane
A
I got forty five miles to go

[Chorus]
A
Forty five miles, forty five miles
A
That’s gonna take all night
A
Should have known right away that something was wrong
A
When I started thinking things were all right, things were not all right

[Verse 2]
A
My old man’s sick, my sister’s going broke
A
They’re closing down my favorite bar
A
I got a smoker’s cough and now to top it all off
A
I think I’m gonna wreck my car, I’m gonna wreck my car

[Verse 3]
A
They say life goes in phases like seasons
A
I say something about all of them sucks
A
It’s as hard to be hot as it is to be cold
A
You’re either out of control or you’re stuck, you’re either out of control or you’re stuck

[Verse 4]
A
So take whatever road that you want to
A
Careful of the ice and the snow
A
I ain’t got time to change my mind
A
I got forty five miles to go

[Chorus]
A
Forty five miles, forty five miles
A
Man that’s gonna take all night
A
I should have known right away that something was wrong
A
When I started thinking things were all right, things are not all right
