Black Tar Road

by King and Queen of the Losers

on Crutch (2017)

[Verse 1]
Break down, I'm so withdrawn, shakin' at the knees
All I want is a little taste, how it tastes so sweet
Hanging in the streets of Boston, like everybody does
Headed up from the subway stairs, and that's where it was

[Chorus]
Black tar road, baby, take me home
Black tar road, baby, take me home
Black tar road, baby, take me home
Black tar road, I'm coming

[Verse 2]
When we came up on the scene, we knew just what to do
Now I'm headed to the promised land
Grindin' my teeth to the bone, sweatin' through my clothes
Rollin' down to the black tar road, the road I chose

[Chorus]
Black tar road, baby, take me home
Black tar road, baby, take me home
Black tar road, baby, take me home
Black tar road, I'm coming

[Bridge]
Noddin' out in my hotel room, the time has come at last
I might be in too deep, there's no going back
Now I'm ready for the come down, I feel it settin' in
Break down, I'm so withdrawn, as it starts again

[Final Chorus]
Black tar road, baby, take me home
Black tar road, baby, take me home
Black tar road, baby, take me home
Black tar road, I'm coming
