Lonely Lubbock Lights
Well 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
Well, her daddy is a southern Baptist preacher
I had to choose her or the bars where I sang
Now when I call, you know I can't seem to reach her
I'm gonna find her if it's the last thing
So I'll drive all night long
Until 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
So I'll drive all night long
Until I find where we went wrong
But there's no love in sight
Just those lonely Lubbock lights
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
So I'll drive all night long
Until I find where we went wrong
But there's no love in sight
Just those lonely Lubbock lights
Just those lonely Lubbock lights
Just those lonely Lubbock lights
I could have swore she came walking in
Forgot the words to a song that I wrote
Must be losing my mind once again
Well, her daddy is a southern Baptist preacher
I had to choose her or the bars where I sang
Now when I call, you know I can't seem to reach her
I'm gonna find her if it's the last thing
So I'll drive all night long
Until 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
So I'll drive all night long
Until I find where we went wrong
But there's no love in sight
Just those lonely Lubbock lights
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
So I'll drive all night long
Until I find where we went wrong
But there's no love in sight
Just those lonely Lubbock lights
Just those lonely Lubbock lights
Just those lonely Lubbock lights
