How Far to Waco
I pulled out of Los Angeles
At 2 A.M.
Nothing on the radio
Mariachi band fading out and in
Blacktop in my headlights
Looks like it has no end
Only thing on my mind
Is getting back to my baby again
How far to Waco?
200 miles to New Mexico
Albuquerque by morning light
Six hours to the Texas line
Highway miles, they go by so slow
She's waiting down the road from El Paso
How much further do I have to go?
How far to Waco?
Stopped in a Tucson truck stop
Coke and a candy bar
Paid for the gas with the last of my cash
Got back in the car
I can't wait to hold you, my darling
In my arms
Going back to the love of that pretty girl
That owns my heart
How far to Waco?
200 miles to New Mexico
Albuquerque by morning light
Six hours to the Texas line
Highway miles, they go by so slow
She's waiting down the road from El Paso
How much further do I have to go?
How far to Waco?
How far to Waco?
200 miles to New Mexico
Albuquerque by morning light
Six hours to the Texas line
Highway miles, they go by so slow
She's waiting down the road from El Paso
How much further do I have to go?
How far to Waco?
How much further do I have to go?
How far to Waco?
At 2 A.M.
Nothing on the radio
Mariachi band fading out and in
Blacktop in my headlights
Looks like it has no end
Only thing on my mind
Is getting back to my baby again
How far to Waco?
200 miles to New Mexico
Albuquerque by morning light
Six hours to the Texas line
Highway miles, they go by so slow
She's waiting down the road from El Paso
How much further do I have to go?
How far to Waco?
Stopped in a Tucson truck stop
Coke and a candy bar
Paid for the gas with the last of my cash
Got back in the car
I can't wait to hold you, my darling
In my arms
Going back to the love of that pretty girl
That owns my heart
How far to Waco?
200 miles to New Mexico
Albuquerque by morning light
Six hours to the Texas line
Highway miles, they go by so slow
She's waiting down the road from El Paso
How much further do I have to go?
How far to Waco?
How far to Waco?
200 miles to New Mexico
Albuquerque by morning light
Six hours to the Texas line
Highway miles, they go by so slow
She's waiting down the road from El Paso
How much further do I have to go?
How far to Waco?
How much further do I have to go?
How far to Waco?
