Lyrics After three nights in jail, I head north from Toyahvale Switch to 285 in Pecos, head up to Red Bluff My walk's real steady and my eyes are real cold But I feel like I'm all of sixteen years old Lost in the Travelodge, with the television on with the sound down I don't feel so tough Old issues of Sunset magazine to read Sleep for twelve hours, and dream about home I have no place to go, so I drive up to New Mexico Fix my eyes in the rearview when I cross the state line And I panic, I guess. and although it's quite late I take the first exit to 128 I am coming back to Midland, I hope you won't mind Polaroids of the two of us scattered on the passenger's seat I drive slowly And evenly And I dream about home
Thanks. I wish he would play this more often
Lyrics
After three nights in jail, I head north from Toyahvale
Switch to 285 in Pecos, head up to Red Bluff
My walk's real steady and my eyes are real cold
But I feel like I'm all of sixteen years old
Lost in the Travelodge, with the television on with the sound down
I don't feel so tough
Old issues of Sunset magazine to read
Sleep for twelve hours, and dream about home
I have no place to go, so I drive up to New Mexico
Fix my eyes in the rearview when I cross the state line
And I panic, I guess. and although it's quite late
I take the first exit to 128
I am coming back to Midland, I hope you won't mind
Polaroids of the two of us scattered on the passenger's seat
I drive slowly
And evenly
And I dream about home
bless you for recording this
