The Altogether
This One’s Mine
[Verse 1]
I’m dying to see you
I’m on the road and I’m moving fast
The scene is written and the die is cast
And I’m blasting all cylinders

The endless rotation
The spinning wheels and the vacant lots
The night is falling and I’m calling the shots
I escape with just the clothes on my back

[Chorus]
And the outlaws, the housewives
The painters, their past lives
They all have their good times
But this one’s mine
I know this stretch of road so well
I’ve even timed it out
I’m looking for a sign
And this one’s mine

[Verse 2]
I’m trying to see you
But if I can’t then my shades are too dark
But if they are it’s cause I saw the spark
And it nearly burned a hole in my chest
We pass by the marshall
The empty space in between his ears
He minds his business while I grind his gears
It appears I’m just too quick to be caught

[Chorus]
And the doctors, magicians
The straight politicians
They all have their good times
But this one’s mine
I know this stretch of road so well
I’ve even timed it out
I’m looking for a sign
And this one’s mine

[Bridge]
I’m gonna hit the jackpot today
I’m counting cards even when I don’t play
I put my house at the top of a hill
So I can somersault down and turn around and see it still

[Chorus]
I’m sailing, I’m cruising
I’m buying, you’re choosing
We’re moving down the line
And doing just fine
The drying tears of pioneers
And folks way past their prime
They all want some sunshine
But this one’s mine
