On the way to Cooper's Landing

I got it bad for a woman who can ride
just sit in the passenger seat and ride
while I drive down dirt roads repeating
is it this way or that
She says I don’t know babe, I’m just enjoying
you and this drive so take us baby
take us whichever way your hand
turns that wheel, just keep one
right there on my thigh while
I light this smoke and sit back
and imagine you and I riding just like this
in fifty years when I’m gray and your hands are crooked
when you’ve forgotten how broke you are now
or that your daughter is squirming away from you
and yes, I’m thinking of the day
when you’ve forgotten that time
you said you made me cry and I said
good
