INDIANAPOLIS Uncle Tupelo, from Rockville 7" 6088-7 By Brian Henneman
Got a tow, from a guy named Joe
cost sixty dollars hope I don't run out of dough
told me about a sex offense put him three days in jail
stuck in indianapolis hope I live to tell the tale
chorus, same chords: Can't go west, can't go east I'm stuck in Indianapolis with a fuel pump that's deceased Ten days on the road, now I'm four hours from my hometown Is this hell or Indianapolis with no way to get around
Called my girl to tell her of the trouble that I had first time I called her in 10 days, I guess I made her mad Far as she's concerned I belong in his Hoosier state stuck in Indianapolis with no way to set things straight
chorus, then harmonica lead over one verse of chords
Sittin in this bar it's gettin more than I can stand if I could catch a ride I really think I'd ditch this band Who knows what this repair will cost, scared to spend a dime I'll puke if that jukebox plays John Cougar one more time
strum but if I ever leave here I hope never to return If I get that van back man, the road I'm gonna burn Right now my future's in the hands of them boys down at Firestone stuck in Indianapolis, feelin' all alone.
