Drive-By Truckers Lyrics
Days of Graduation

Bobby went out for a joy ride with my best girl
Left me at the party, He was my best friend and I
miss him. It was almost June and the moon
illuminated the rain-soaked streets like a candy
wrapper. I guess that's why Bobby had his lights
off, Tear-assing threw the back part of town and
those deserted country roads where me and Bobby
tear-assed so many times before. Sometimes with my
best girl and sometimes Bobby had him one too.

But this night he banked that curve just a little
too hard and that 442 went airborne, Hit a
telephone pole and split in two, Bobby's skull was

split right in two, And my girl was pinned in her
seat, partially embedded in the dashboard And for
the next twenty minutes the only sound in the
night were her screams. And the sound of the wheel
still spinning.

In a little while the ambulance came and the sound
of its siren mixed with the screaming girl and the
spinning wheel.

But when the story was told the next day at the
graduation ceremony, Everyone said that when the
ambulance came The paramedics could hear
"Free Bird" still playing on the stereo.

You know it's a very long song
