People sometimes go out of style

Caught it like a new form of the flu

Chalk it up to our old friend the blues

Questions and the answers you'd found

Talked me outa that break-down

You said, time makes the wheels spin

And the truck stops, in the parking lots

And the cheap models

You're another sun that done gone down

Put another good one in the ground
G A
Good lord it's going 'round

Now, let the wheels spin

And the tears roll out and the tributes roll in

And the truck stops, in the parking lots

And the cheap models

When will we, become ourselves?
