Verse 1.
Met on an interstate bound for Carolina
It sure is hard to get there but your soul knows the way
She had the gift of tongue, laurels and medals
He gave up that life long before today
Chorus 1.
She was fourteen years old
He was barely a man
Now she s pickin up her life
FF FF
An he sings in the band
Verse 2.
Her eyes light up the night like itty bits of sequin
She likes his face, a story of its own
Company s a fright, lonely in Manhattan
Waiting for a savior or to see his show
Chorus 2.
She grew out her hair
Says she wants to be a star
It s a long road to Heaven
From the backseat of a car
FF /B
Change:
A dancer, a poet, a living existential
Nothing St. Estephe cannot save
One can escape from running in circles
Promises die in the grave
Verse 3.
Night they finally spent, Winona Minnesota
A pretty face was born here, the ugly pass away
Holy is the magic in this life or after
Romance is a stranger, lets a lover stay
Chorus 3.
Now she s twenty years old
An she s found another man
Now she s lookin back on life
And he sings in the band
FF FF
Great road trippin tune to sing along to or play along to.
