I was singing at the ol’ Broken Spoke
|
I could have swore she came walking in
|
Forgot the words to a song that I wrote
|
|
Must be losing my mind once again
|
Her daddy is a southern Baptist preacher
|
I had to choose her or the bars where I sang
|
Now when I call I can’t seem to reach her
|
I’m gonna find her if it’s the last thing
|
|
Chorus:
|
So I’ll drive all night long
|
Till I find where we went wrong
|
But there’s no love in sight -
|
Just those lonely Lubbock lights
|
|
I was ready to give up the road
|
As I turned onto her street
|
But the silhouette there in her window
|
Was of someone who once looked like me
|
I’d placed a price on her heart
|
But someone else collected the bounty
|
Now this lost soul don’t know where to start
|
I think I’m lost somewhere in Hale County
|
|
Chorus
|
|
That west Texas wind grew colder
|
As I left her further behind me
|
Sometimes I stop and cry on the shoulder
|
Cause every town I pass helps to remind me
|
|
Chorus
|
