Drivin' down the road with a beer in my hand
Got them highway blues
So I pull off at Exit 12
Just trying to eat some food
Nothing special but it does me right
Can't wait to see the parking lots
And pretty lights
You can keep your fancy stores and restaurants
'Cause the rest stop's got everything I need
Dinner, a shitter, and a dozen TVs
Girl at the Starbucks to fix me a drink
Man with a broom to clean up my stink
Fancy folks like their clubs and pop-up shops
Me? I like a rest stop
Doors slide open and I stroll in
I might as well be home
Blonde at the BK shoots me a grin
She's seen me here before
Burger and fries 'neath the heat lamp's glow
Takes away my worries
And my country woes
When life gets rough, I know where I can cool my heels
Now sometimes life can be unfair
Your store closes down
The President don't care
Just fill up your flask
Rev up your truck and drive
Meet me by the Roy Rogers sign
'Cause the rest stop's got everything I need
Dinner, a shitter, and a dozen TVs
Girl at the Starbucks to fix me a drink
Man with a broom to clean up my stink
Fancy folks like their clubs and pop-up shops
You can keep your Le Pain Quotidien and your mom-and-pops
Me? I like a rest stop
