Three Thousand Miles Lyrics

You should've seen this waitress I knew back in Port Alberny
She was a wildflower, Her name was Nadine
Seems like every friend I had in that valley
Was stoned crazy, man It's good that I got out of that scene
But I love gettin' high and I talk when I'm stoned
Just like right now, like I'm talkin' to you
I came 3000 miles on a greyhound from home
that leaves 3000 miles left to do
Oooooh
I was 4 nights in jail and every morning
I called my mother and she hung up the phone
I was sicker than a dog and that was my farewell
4 days in a city cell, yeah I've done Christmas alone
And I love gettin' high and I talk when I'm stoned
Just like right now, like I'm talkin' to you
When you're 3000 miles on a greyhound from home
Well you've got 3000 miles left to do
Oooooh
And I was crazy to buy that big black Chevy
I can't get it on the road 'til my license is good
Come the end of July it's my last court date
I can't wait to celebrate, stop by and do a line on the hood
Cause I love gettin' high and I talk when I'm stoned
Just like right now, like I'm talkin' to you
I came 3000 miles on a greyhound alone
that leaves 3000 miles left to do
Oooooh
Well I left that town like the scene of a crime
if I go back sometime and settle down
I'll take that bus back out West, find me an old lady
I always figured by 30 I'd stop smokin' dope and screwin' around
Man I love gettin' high and I talk when I'm stoned
Just like right now, like I'm talkin' to you
I came 3000 miles on a greyhound alone
that leaves 3000 miles left to do
Man I love gettin' high and I talk when I'm stoned
Just like right now, like I'm talkin' to you
When you're 3000 miles on a greyhound from home
You got 3000 miles left to do
Oooooh
