Lonely Lubbock Lights Lyrics

Lonely Lubbock Lights lyrics

I was singing at the ol' Broken Spoke 

I could have swore she came walking in

Forgot the words to a song that I wrote



Must be losing my mind once again

Her daddy is a southern Baptist preacher

I had to choose her or the bars where I sang 

Now when I call I can't seem to reach her

I'm gonna find her if it's the last thing



Chorus:

So I'll drive all night long

Till I find where we went wrong

But there's no love in sight -

Just those lonely Lubbock lights



I was ready to give up the road

As I turned onto her street

But the silhouette there in her window

Was of someone who once looked like me

I'd placed a price on her heart

But someone else collected the bounty

Now this lost soul don't know where to start

I think I'm lost somewhere in Hale County



Chorus



That west Texas wind grew colder

As I left her further behind me 

Sometimes I stop and cry on the shoulder

Cause every town I pass helps to remind me



Chorus
