lyrics

I was just trying to make some bread.
To get me through college, now I’m in Iraq.
I would tell younger me, hey, don’t do that.
But younger me saw the check, couldn’t look back.

We rolled out long before, the sun shined on Safwan.
We were bound for glory and
some bootleg DVDs, and bush-league currency.
Here’s my USD, now give me dinars.

I lead the way down the MSR,
Tampa was its name.
As I recall, we crossed a bridge
guarded by Italians,
how’d it ever come to this?
The only thing we ever said, “hello,” “Buongiorno.”

You know how it is.
I shouted out Buongiorno, over that bridge, high above the Tigris.
I just like to joke and have a good time, now and then I digress.
I’ve been out on the road, twenty some days, trying to get back to Scania.
On the way to Scania.
Runaway.

Carlin rode on a camel’s back.
I just crack a smile.
Lost myself in a foosball match, crazy barefoot third world style,
While that crowd goes wild.

This one’s star is about to rise,
Navistar is about to shine.
Rolling south where the crude is refined,
Navistar is about to shine.
Scream it loud, let’s hear it one more time.
This one’s star is about to rise,
Navistar is about to shine.

You know how it is?
What you gonna charge for a Cuban cigar, I ain’t ever had one?
You’re my friend, I’m sure, give you good deals, to keep you coming back son.
On the way to Scania.
Runaway.
