she runs so wide and deep
The sun winks down between
The tugboats sing down low
beneath the pop of the pavement brakes
I enter an old West Memphis reverie
I can see me flying down I -40
And the music swirls with possibility
that I'll wake up from my dream
Maybe I've just watched too much TV
But now I'm bound for Colorado
And I'm living out in my car
I went out to find myself
underneath the western stars
I ain't go ing back to Nashville
All alone where no one cares
Steam is pumping smoke and money
But that ain't no lie for me
I'll never make another day's
But the big trucks are rollin',
baby, they go back to Tennessee
Tell my daddy that I done the best I can
But now I'm bound for Colorado
And I'm living out in my car
I went out to find myself
And I found myself in a bar
I ain't go ing back to Nashville
All alone where no one cares
Now it's a long way home from
And another day I get stoned
And I tell my lies to guys
And then some days I start driving
Till I just can't go no more
Right now I'm bound for Colorado
And I'm living out in my car
I went out to find myself
And I found myself in a bar
I ain't go ing back to Nashville
All alone where no one cares
