"Come on man," she said
|
"We have to leave this town
|
I can't stand another day without the rain"
|
|
I said, "We'll leave now
|
you can pack our things
|
Let me get the bill and I can make it straight"
|
It was the same as yesterday
|
|
We've been gone
|
And the miles stretched down the long road
|
We moved as fast as we could
|
|
Through the heat of the desert
|
And the cruelty of the Buick's seat
|
Just to keep on
|
|
That night we laid on the floor of the desert
|
But I could barely sleep, yeah I had this dream
|
There was a man in a black car, with a man in the back seat
|
And I woke up in a cold sweat with her lyin' next to me
|
|
We've been gone
|
And the miles stretched down the long road
|
We moved as fast as we could
|
|
Through the heat of the desert
|
And the cruelty of the Buick's seat
|
Just to keep on
|
|
We sat on the corner of Memphis and 53rd
|
As they filled the tank, we had a drink
|
She whispered, "Let's get moving"
|
|
That night we laid on the floor of the desert
|
But I still couldn't sleep
|
There was a man in a black car with a man in the back seat
|
I'd wake up in a cold sweat with her lying next to me
