24 Hours a Day
Lyricist：K. Finley, Todd Snider
Skinny young man with born again eyes
And a Jesus tattoo on his arm
Leans on the wall while the traffic goes by
The gas-mart at Fairview and Farm
A rap song pounds from an '83 Caddy
While he waits on a pay phone to ring
Been standing around since a quarter past nine
Still hasn't heard a thing
24 hours a day
24 hours a day
Sign says we're open the man says you pay
24 hours a day
Backed up on Farm, car horns are screaming
Cause some guy's Suburban is stalled
He guesses her daddy, must be back home
Otherwise she'd have called
He thinks to himself, I guess I can't blame him
It wasn't so smart what we did
A uniformed cop gets in line with his coffee
Some women yells at her kid

24 hours a day
24 hours a day
Sign says we're open the man says you pay
24 hours a day
Carload of drunks, pulls up in a hurry
For a six-pack before its too late
He starts to dial to leave one more message
Stops and decides just to wait
Could have been different and maybe it couldn't
With some things it's too late to learn
Fumes from the gasoline hang in the air
World just continues to turn
24 hours a day
24 hours a day
Sign says we're open the man says you pay
24 hours a day
The skinny young man with born again eyes
And a Jesus tattoo on his arm
Leans on the wall while the traffic goes by
A gas-mart at Fairview and Farm
