Driver Down by Jack Merlot – kind of a blues-y take with some effects that I think shows some promise.
Recorded a long time ago.

As Manny sits by the side of the road and waits
Sits by the side of the road, tempting fate
She slows down and looks through her rearview mirror
says, “he don’t look so bad” and he has no reason to fear her
he said, driver, take me back down, down
back to the city of lovers
I’ll be acquainted with angels
you’ll share me with no other
I had just gone down to listen to traffic and play
My mind ain’t entirely gone, despite what they say
Glass in the bushes, streaks on the pavement remain
I guess I’ll never know just what it was they were thinking
when she said, driver, take me back down, down
back to the city of lovers
I’ll be acquainted with angels
you’ll share me with no other
driver, take me back down, down
back to the city of lovers
I’ll be acquainted with strangers
you’ll share me with no other
