Truckstop butterfly Covered in gasoline Truckstop butterfly Kiss you till you're clean Me and a man with a mohawk on his head Found a dirty butterfly half dead Rainbow of shiny oil slick and stuck on wing Helpless in a puddle muddy thing 7-11 cherry soda and a pie 30 ton steel grey cloud And the sky is dark and dripping Though we stop and wonder why You're running late but what a great alibi Truckstop butterfly Covered in gasoline Truckstop butterfly Kiss you till you're clean (Get gone!) Far out east in deserts there's a vein of inky gold Here out west you wear it like a coat Me and the man with a mohawk watch you go Folllow sun and leave the melting snow Man, how I miss you Truckstop butterfly Fly so I can't see you Truckstop butterfly I hope you made it, and you didn't die Still, I do miss you Truckstop butterfly Truckstop butterfly Truckstop butterfly
