Lone Star Road Songtext
von Kelley Hunt

I cursed to the moon and I swore to the wind
I ain′t never going back to that place again
Feeling like a prisoner on parole
I didn't have a clue where I wanted to go
But I didn′t give a damn, didn't think twice
Brain was on fire, heart was on ice
Like jack keruac on a benzadrine buzz
Bent on getting anywhere but where I was, on

Lone star road
Back there the way I came
Lone star road
That's where I remembered my name


It was route sixty-six, it was highway one
It was flying across Alaska in the midnight sun
Mexico city, Chesapeake bay
Playing chicken with anything that got in my way
I ran out of road, I ran out of gas
I ran out of reasons for running so fast
Staring at the mirror in a cheap hotel
I drove three thousand miles to find the same old hell, like

Lone star road
Back there the way I came
Lone star road
That′s where I remembered my name

About then suicide would′ve felt just fine
I was looking for a weapon when the clock struck nine
A small, still voice, more like a scream
Woke me out of that hard, cold dream
Saying get out of here, get your ass in the car
Keep on driving till you know where you are
So I opened my eyes, I ran out the door
Singing glory hallelujah with my foot to the floor
Only one place left for me to go
I had to trace my tracks
I had to trace my tracks
Had to trace my tacks back to lone star


Lone star road
Back there the way I came
Lone star road
That's where I remembered my name
Lone star road
Back there the way I came
Lone Star Road
Back where I remembered my name
