The highway is full of big cars going nowhere fast
And folks is smoking anything that'll burn
Some people wrap their lives around a cocktail glass
And you sit wondering
where you're going to turn.
I got it.
Some people not only smoke, (or instead of smoking), turn to alcohol to attempt to drown life’s problems. It only makes it worse in the end, and this line kind of goes along with a lyric by rapper  Kendrick Lamar  in his track “Swimming Pools”: 
 Now I done grew up Round some people living their lifes in bottles
Come And Be My Baby
