lyrics

Drug front in a five-and-dime up in Milwaukee just killin' time
And then we slid into a joint down the block
Let me ask ya,
Arcadia what ya got?
Headed back south on the 71 enter Kentucky we were chasing dusk
And if by syzygy the planets align
Let me tell ya,
Arcadia every time

Now I'm crushing up some pills to get ya through
When destination meets deja vu
I got a friend to let us crash on the floor
Let me ask ya,
Arcadia what ya know?
I'm looking for a steel-trap woman
To catch my soul when I slip by

How could I let ya down when you're the one who's carrying me?
How could I let ya down if you're the one who's carrying me?

Now I know just enough to know nothin' but 85 on 35
How about ya keep my radio bumpin' cause Arcadia I'm alive

How could I let ya down when you're the one who's carrying me?
How could I let ya down if you're the one who's carrying me?
