I parked my car beside the highway

and I didnt lock the door

left a note there with the keys

if she cranks then friend she's yours



then i struck out across texas

gunna walk it line for line

now i'm half way cross new mexico

and your still on my mind



this road keeps going nowhere

just leads me on and on

ask I ask myself with every step

will i ever be alone



I wonder just how far it is over you

is there no place i go

that you dont come too.

cause when I left Tennasee

I thought that we were though

now i wonder how far it is over you.



I was deep in california

when i finally made a freind

it was me and that old hobo

till you showed up again

the he ran out of liquor

and I ran out of time

im standing by the ocean

and your still on my mind



Staring at the water so blue and deep and wide

I'll bet a man could lose a memory over on the other side



I wonder just how far it is over you

is there no place i go

that you dont come too

cause when I left Tennasee

I thought that we were though

now i wonder how far it is over you
