Verse2
Called my girl to tell her all the trouble that I had.
First time I called her in ten days, guess that made her mad.
?Far as she's concerned I'm stuck here in this Hoosier State.?
Stuck in Indianapolis with no way to set things straight.
CHORUS
Sittin' in this bar is gettin' more than I can stand,
If I could catch a ride, would they think I ditched this band.
Who knows what this repair'll cost, scared to spend a dime.
I'll puke if that jukebox plays John Cougar one more time!
But if I ever leave here I hope never to return,
If I get that van back, man the road I'm gonna burn.
Right now my future's in the hands of the boys down at Firestone.
Stuck in Indianapolis, feelin' all alone.
