|
Blue kentucky highway, headin' for the line |
|
She hadn't said a word all night, |
|
But the wheels are turnin' in her mind |
|
Now i was ridin' shotgun, |
|
And i knew things had gone awry |
|
Just as soon as she dropped me off |
|
At the side of the road |
|
And she let that gravel fly |
|
Chorus |
|
Now i'm walkin' in the moonlight, |
|
Seein' nothin' but the taillights |
|
And that's a pair of taillights |
|
I may never see again |
|
She hit me with the left and right, |
|
Showin' me nothin' but the taillights |
|
And that's about as lonely |
|
As the highway's ever been |
|
Back here with my thumb out in the wind |
|
Was it somethin' that i did to her, |
|
Or the things i never said |
|
I wonder if the way we were was only in my head |
|
Now if i even make it back to town |
|
Before the sun comes up |
|
I'm gonna hit every parking spot around |
|
'til i find that pick-up truck |
|
Chorus |
|
Now i'm talkin' in the moonlight |
|
Seein' nothin' but the taillights |
|
And that's a pair of taillights |
|
I may never see again |
|
She hit me with the left and right |
|
Showin' me nothin' but the taillights |
|
And that's about as lonely |
|
As a highway's ever been |
|
Stuck here with my thumb out in the wind |
|
Well i'll bet right now she's laughin' |
|
At how she brought me to my knees |
|
But she won't be laughin' half as loud |
|
When she gives me back my keys |
|
Chorus |
|
She'll be walkin' in the moonlight, |
|
Seein' nothin' but the taillights |
|
And that's a pair of taillights |
|
She won't ever see again |
|
She hit me with a left and right |
|
And with nothin' but the taillights |
|
And i know that's about as lonely |
|
As a highway's ever been |
|
Back here with my thumb out in the wind |
|
There she goes, here i come |
