Sandwiches For The Road

All packed to go, baloney and mayonnaise sandwiches for the road.
Lay them out across the dash in the August sun.
And if they turn green don't be afraid,
nothing can hurt you but yourself.
Nothing can hurt you but yourself.
I've been given to visions from time to time.
And the voice in my head can be a little unkind sometimes.
Go ahead, point it at me, I ain't scared,
nothing can hurt you but yourself.
Nothing can hurt you but yourself.
And if I see you on the street and if I whop you on the head,
you probably got it coming.
And if you hit me back, we'll call it even, but I ain't going down easy.
'cause my mama loves me and I got friends in Decatur, Alabama.
So drink another drink and smoke another cigarette.
Something's gonna get us yet,
'cause I got ashes in my throat and I ain't got no vote.
It's just the way I stand myself.
Nothing can hurt you but yourself.
Nothing can hurt you but yourself.
Nothing can hurt you but yourself.
Nothing can hurt you but yourself.
