Hell Bent For Buffalo

I'm on the 90 heading north

It's iced up pretty bad

That wind off the lake

Makes it hard to stay on track

There's a pretty little thing

Brown hair and green eyes

Right now she's the number one

Thing on my mind

If I can stay on this highway

And get there alive

She says that she'll make it

Well worth my drive

She's waiting for me

On the other side of all of this snow

Why else would I be

Hell bent for buffalo

There's a semi in the ditch

There's flashing lights ahead

But I'm thinking about a fireplace

And nice warm bed

My coffee's way past cold

All my cigarettes are gone

My knuckles cold and white

From how tight I'm holding on

If I can stay on this highway

And get there alive

She says that she'll make it

Well worth my drive

She's waiting for me

On the other side of all of this snow

Why else would I be

Hell bent for buffalo

I could turn this rig around

It's still like summer in the south

But I can see her in my mind

As I throw this hammer down

If I can stay on this highway

And get there alive

She says that she'll make it

Well worth my drive

She's waiting for me

On the other side of all of this snow

Why else would I be

Hell bent for buffalo
