When I left Tallahassee, I was homeward bound
Had my radio on listening to my favorite sounds
My wheels were humming like a guitar strumming when I hit that Kentucky line
Then my motor started missing my radiator hissing, and I began losing time
Now I'm all broke down 99 miles from home
You know I've got you on my mind, but tonight we may be sleeping alone
As soon as I am there you can let down your hair and
take me where you want to go
But now I'm all broke down and I'm 99 miles from home
Well the water pump busted and the radiator's dry as a bone
While the wrecker hooked up I thought I'd call you on the phone
Well I'm dog tired, strung and wired, and it looks like a long delay
If you want to wait up, put some coffee in your cup, cause
I don't think I'll make it today
I’m sorry baby I know you’re feeling blue
But when I get my crate going I’m coming straight home
I’ll make it up to you
