Albuquerque

I've spent twenty three nights in this one horse town

I've been jacked up, been broke down for too long

I've been bustin' my tail in the blazing sun

Watching jackrabbits watch tumbleweeds run until dawn

Something's whisperin' in my ear

That I should be light years from here

In Albuquerque, where the skies are blue

(Gonna take a bus, take a train, gonna fly

Prayin' she's there after all this time)

Oh, in Albuquerque, my heart aches for you

(Stretchin' out across the lazy haze

Hauntin' my dreams, callin' my name)

Three more days 'til I get my pay

I need my money but I can't stay another night

I've been tossin', turnin' in my bed

I can't get her out, out of my head to save my life

Shake the sand out of my boots

Six hundred thirty four miles to you

In Albuquerque, where the skies are blue

(Gonna take a bus, take a train, gonna fly

Prayin' she's there after all this time)

Oh, in Albuquerque, my heart aches for you

(Stretchin' out across the lazy haze

Hauntin' my dreams, callin' my name)

Oh, in Albuquerque, where the skies are blue

(Gonna take a bus, take a train, gonna fly

Prayin' she's there after all this time)

Yeah, in Albuquerque, my heart aches for you

(Stretchin' out across the lazy haze

Hauntin' my dreams, callin' my name)

Albuquerque, where the skies are blue

(Gonna take a bus, take a train, gonna fly

Prayin' she's there after all this time)

Oh, in Albuquerque, my heart aches for you

(Stretchin' out across the lazy haze

Hauntin' my dreams, callin' my name)
