Drive-By Truckers - Days Of Graduation Lyrics
Bobby went out for a joy ride with my best girl, left me at the party,
It was almost June and the three-quarter moon illuminated
The rain-soaked streets like a candy wrapper.
I guess that's why Bobby had his lights off,
Tear-assing through them back streets of town,
Sometimes with my best girl and sometimes Bobby had him one too.
But this night he banked that curve just a little too hard and that 442 went airborne,
Hit a telephone pole and split in two, Bobby's skull was split right in two,
And my girl was pinned in her seat, partially embedded in the dashboard
And for the next twenty minutes the only sound in the night were the sounds of her screams.
And the sound of the wheel still spinning.
In a little while the ambulance came and the sound of its
siren mixed with the screaming girl and the spinning wheel.
But when the story was told the next day at the graduation ceremony,
Everyone said that when the ambulance came
The paramedics could hear Free Bird still playing on the stereo.
You know it's a very long song.

Kinda seems like every small town has a story like this. Sad part is they happen every couple of years. Its like a cautionary tale from god that keeps getting refreshed.
It's a very, verylong song.
"Partially embedded in the dashboard..."
I love this band so much. They are on my bucket list
great band can remember seeing them at a local bar i worked at before they made it
This song is incredibly powerful yet disturbing
