[Verse 1]
Highways and dancehalls
A good song takes you far
You write about the moon
And you dream about the stars
Blues in old motel rooms
Girls in daddy's cars
You sing about the nights
And you laugh about the scars
[Verse 2]
Coffee in the morning
Cocaine afternoons
You talk about the weather
And you grin about the rooms
Phone calls long distance
To tell you how you've been
You forget about the losses
You exaggerate the wins
[Chorus]
And when you stop to let 'em know
You've got it down
It's just another town along the road
[Verse 3]
The ladies come to see you
If your name still rings a bell
They give you damn near nothin'
And they'll say they knew you well
So you tell 'em you remember
But they know it's just a game
And along the way their faces
All begin to look the same
Highways and dancehalls
A good song takes you far
You write about the moon
And you dream about the stars
Blues in old motel rooms
Girls in daddy's cars
You sing about the nights
And you laugh about the scars
[Verse 2]
Coffee in the morning
Cocaine afternoons
You talk about the weather
And you grin about the rooms
Phone calls long distance
To tell you how you've been
You forget about the losses
You exaggerate the wins
[Chorus]
And when you stop to let 'em know
You've got it down
It's just another town along the road
[Verse 3]
The ladies come to see you
If your name still rings a bell
They give you damn near nothin'
And they'll say they knew you well
So you tell 'em you remember
But they know it's just a game
And along the way their faces
All begin to look the same
