Worthless

I can't take this kind of pressure

I must confess one more dusty road

Would be just a road too long

Worthless

I just can't, I just can't

I just can't seem to get started

Don't have the heart to live in the fast lane

All that has passed and gone

Worthless

(And there ain't nothing you can do about it!)

Worthless

(Pardon me while I panic!)

Worthless, worthless, worthless

I come from KC Missouri

And I got my kicks out on Route 66

Every truck stop from Butte to MO

Motown to old Alabama

From Texarkana and east of Savannah

From Tampa to old Kokomo

Worthless

I once ran the Indy 500

I must confess I'm impressed how I did it

I wonder how close that I came

Now I get a sinking sensation

I was the top of the line, out of sight; out of mind

So much for fortune and fame

Once took a Texan to a wedding,

Once took a Texan to a wedding

He kept forgetting, his loneliness letting

His thoughts turn to home and we turned

I took a man to a graveyard

I beg your pardon, it's quite hard enough

Just living with the stuff I have learned

Worthless

Once drove a surfer to sunset

There were bikinis and buns, there were weenies

Fellini just couldn't forget

Pico, let's go up to Zuma

From Zuma to Yuma the rumor was

I had a hand in the lay of the land

Get up and go hit the highway

(Oo-wooh...)

I worked on a reservation

(Ooh...ooh...)

Who would believe they would love me and leave

On a bus back to old Santa Fe?

Once in an Indian Nation

I took the kids on the skids where the Hopi

Was happy 'til I heard 'em say...

"You're worthless"
