Highways And Cigarettes lyrics

Got caught up in a breakaway dream Destination city of New Orleans Cheap motels and big-rig swells Crossing bridges for eternity Headed west for a two week stand And saw the poets of work-a-day glasses Las Cruces is a part of you now Desert bird sings songs of laughter Still out there with the coffee stain And puttin' miles on shoes Can't escape the smell of cigarettes Still livin' out these American late-night blues Best to clear the mind With a Mexicali radio station Keep an eye out for the border patrol Checkin' for drugs and so called aliens Highways and dreams forever together In the minds of the free and the innocent Always a future in a travelers hands Starting fires on the river and madness Still out there with the coffee stains And puttin' miles on shoes Can't escape the smell of cigarettes Still livin' out these American late-night blues Still out there with the coffee stains And puttin' miles on shoes Can't escape the smell of cigarettes Still livin' out these American late-night blues
