Bakersfield Lyrics
I'm towing a heavy load,
I can't seem to make it,
Make it on my own!
Turn the lights down low now!
Turn down our bed,
I can't seem to get you
Out of my head!
Chorus:
Stranded here in Bakersfield
So close yet, so far...
-
Mike said, in a live performance, that he was stranded in Bakersfield and “didn’t want to be there” so this song shows his discomfort, away from loved ones. He is thinking of home and how “close” in his mind it is, yet “far away” in physical distance.
