I Need To Find A Gas Station

Somewhere in Mississippi
While I was not paying attention
I started running out of gas

I guess I'd been close to empty for awhile
While I ignorantly drove mile after mile
When I finally noticed the flashing fuel light,
I was horrified to see no exits in sight

I need to find a gas station
I need to find a gas station

When an exit appeared I got off in a flash
But there was nothing but dirt roads and blowing trash
I got back on the highway til the next one came around
At least there were houses, so I drove into the town

I need to find a gas station
I need to find a gas station

After I drive for what seems like forever
I stop at an intersection
I try to flag some people down
To point me in the right direction

I need to find a gas station
I need to find a gas station

Finally someone stops and I find
Out that it's just down a bit
Behind a bank that doesn't look like a bank
Thank god for those directions cuz you can't see it
From the road

Here is a pump, like from 1963
While I take this picture, a policeman stares at me
With my Jersey plates and my tinted window, pimped out, full size SUV
What the hell am I doing in Enterprise, Mississippi

I need to find a gas station
I need to find a gas station
