[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
