I parked my car beside the highway And I didn´t lock the doors Left a note there with the keys if it cranks Well friend, she´s yours And I struck out across Texas
Gonna walk it line to line Now I´m halfway cross New Mexico But you´re still on my mind And this road that´s going nowhere Just leads me on and on As I ask myself with every step Will I ever be alone? I wonder just how far it is over you Is there no place I go that you don´t come too When I left Tennessee, I thought we were through Now I wonder how far it is over you I was deep in California when I finally made a friend And it was me and that old hobo till you showed up again Then he ran out of liquor and I´ve run out of time I´m standing by the ocean but you´re still on my mind
And I´m staring at the water so blue And deep and wide Bet a man could lose a memory Over on the other side I wonder just how far it is over you Is there no place I go that you don´t come too When I left Tennessee, I thought we were through Now I wonder how far it is over you I parked my car beside the highway And I didn´t lock the doors Left a note there with the keys if it cranks Well friend, she´s yours
