The Keys To The Car - Michael Nesmith/The First National Band

作词：M Nesmith

作曲：M Nesmith

Tonight when he hands you the keys

to the car

And he says you can drive some

but don't drive too far

Tonight when she tells you

you're her only one

Remember the morning brings on the sun

And they're watching you stumble and fall

Until you're lost down below like them all

Today when they give you

their words of advice

And tell you you're free

friend as long as it's nice

Today when their words

of sweet wisdom come down

Remember their smiles

are hiding their frowns

And they're watching you stumble and fall

Until you're lost down below like them all

If you say you're their friend

I'm afraid you will learn

They want only friends

they can have on their terms

But the love that you show them

will give you an edge

For authority is more than wearing a badge

And you'll be watching them

stumble and fall

Until they're lost down below like them all

Until they're lost down below like them all
