[Verse 1]
Up in your nephew's room, playing on his cousin's guitar
I wrote a song for you
[Verse 2]
You have done drove off with everything I need
My box and my tumbleweed
[Pre-Chorus]
I picked it up on the way to Flagstaff years ago
I was hanging on to everything you had the grace to show
[Chorus]
You were young and you were hungry
Lord knows I was hungry too
We were both flat-out starving
For something worthwhile to lose
[Verse 3]
Looking over the hill at the lights of your hometown
I wrote this song for you
Thinking of the way we met, a girl home from school
And a boy just passing through
[Pre-Chorus]
I got a job as a cut man at a house just down the road
I had never been to town before and I didn't know a soul
Up in your nephew's room, playing on his cousin's guitar
I wrote a song for you
[Verse 2]
You have done drove off with everything I need
My box and my tumbleweed
[Pre-Chorus]
I picked it up on the way to Flagstaff years ago
I was hanging on to everything you had the grace to show
[Chorus]
You were young and you were hungry
Lord knows I was hungry too
We were both flat-out starving
For something worthwhile to lose
[Verse 3]
Looking over the hill at the lights of your hometown
I wrote this song for you
Thinking of the way we met, a girl home from school
And a boy just passing through
[Pre-Chorus]
I got a job as a cut man at a house just down the road
I had never been to town before and I didn't know a soul
