Lonely Lubbock Lights Songtext / Lyric

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
Her daddy is a southern Baptist preacher
I had to choose her or the bars where I sang
Now when I call I can`t seem to reach her
I`m gonna find her if it`s the last thing

Chorus:
So I`ll drive all night long
Till 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

Chorus

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

Chorus
