Lyrics
0:37Highways and dance halls
0:40A good song takes you far
0:44Your write about the moon
0:46And you dream about the stars
0:52Blues in old motel rooms
0:56Girls in daddy's car
1:00You sing about the nights
1:02And you laugh about the scars
1:12Coffee in the morning coc*ine afternoons
1:19You talk about the weather
1:22And you grin about the rooms
1:29Phone calls long distance
1:31To tell you how you've been
1:35You forget about the losses you exaggerate the wins
1:45When you stop to let 'em know
1:49You've got it down
1:54It's just another town along the road
2:13The ladies come to see you
2:16If your name still rings a bell
2:20They give you damn near nothing
2:23And they'll say they knew you well
2:29So you tell 'em you'll remember
2:32But they know it's just a game
2:36And along the way their faces
2:39All begin to look the same
2:46When you stop to let 'em know
2:50You got it down
2:59It's just another town along the road
3:10Well it isn't for the money
3:13And it's only for a while
3:17You stalk about the rooms
3:20And you roll away the miles
3:26Gamblers in the neon clinging to guitars
3:33You're right about the moon
3:36But you're wrong about the stars
3:42Cause when you stop to let 'em know
3:46You got it down
3:52It's just another town along the road
Highways and dance halls A good song takes you far Your write about the moon And you dream about the stars Blues in old motel rooms Girls in daddy's car You sing about the nights And you laugh about the scars Coffee in the morning coc*ine 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 When you stop to let 'em know You've got it down It's just another town along the road The ladies come to see you If your name still rings a bell They give you damn near nothing And they'll say they knew you well So you tell 'em you'll remember But they know it's just a game And along the way their faces All begin to look the same When you stop to let 'em know You got it down It's just another town along the road Well it isn't for the money And it's only for a while You stalk about the rooms And you roll away the miles Gamblers in the neon clinging to guitars You're right about the moon But you're wrong about the stars Cause when you stop to let 'em know You got it down It's just another town along the road
