He's gonna do, yeah, in five lifetimes
And I've seen that boy nod no, into a dream a time or two
And it will be him}
He says to me, "He's buying a new ride today
I'm gonna look at you?
He'll turn it off and say
Can you drive?
{But the next day phone will ring
And while he's peeking out
A classic deal the boss will give"
Drive
Jimmy, we need to borrow this for a minute
"Can you drive?
Through his hair, he hides the pain
Drive
Can you drive?
Hey, hey and on his way out his glazed stare
Drive
Hell, I couldn't do 'em all
Or do you think that this blind mind
Jimmy, what would you say?
Till that Lennon song comes along
Can you drive?
Will make you stop and wonder
I am signing to escape
You've seen that sweaty jet rag feeling come over him
Hey hell and while he's rolling his own smokes
He said the same thing two weeks ago
Drive
Can you drive?
'Cause we need to escape
Hey William, is that the last time
Now there's so many things that
Can you drive?"
Oh should I pray
What would you do?
