Blue Kentucky highway, heading for the line
She hasn't said a word all night
But the wheels are turning in her mind
I was riding shotgun and I knew things had gone wrong
Just as soon as she drop me off at the side of the road
And she let that gravel fly
(Chorus)
Now I'm walking in the moonlight
Seeing nothing but the tail lights
And that's a pair of tail lights I may never see again
She hit me with the left and right
Showing me nothing but the tail lights
And that's about as lonely as a highway's ever been
Back here with my bum out in the wind
Was it something that I did to her
Or the things I never said
I wonder if the way we were
Was only in my head
Now if I even make it back to town
Before the sun comes up
I'm gonna hit every parking spot around
'Til I find that pickup truck
(Repeat chorus)
Well I'll bet right now she's a-laughing at how
She brought me to my knees
But she won't be laughing half as loud
When she gives me back my keys
She'll be walking in the moonlight
Seeing nothing but the tail lights
And that's a pair of tail lights she won't ever see again
She hit me with the left and right
Showing me nothing but the tail lights
I'll know that's about as lonely as a highway's ever been
Back here with my bum out in the wind
