Joann was is an awkward position |
|
Very unmarried and starting to show |
|
Joann had wanted to be a beautician |
|
She thought it looked like a good time to go |
|
Got on a greyhound to ride up to macon |
|
No one is new brunswick would quite understand |
|
She wouldn't look at the side of the highway |
|
Where written in spray paint said "sam loves joann" |
|
Joann, joann, how could you leave your man |
|
I'm yours forever in big old blue letters |

|
Sam's on his way to the state penitentiary |
|
He doesn't know he's a father to be |
|
Sam only wanted to borrow a chevy |
|
But the state locked him up and they threw out the key |
|
Sam hoped to take her away to get married |
|
But he never asked her, so much for big plans |
|
Now the prison bus takes him on down that same highway |
|
Where written in spray paint "sam loves joann" |

I'm yours forever in big old blue letters |

|
Funny how things from the heat of the moment |
|
Like making a baby or getting tattooed |
|
Last a lot longer than ever expected |
|
Feelings might fade but the facts never do |
|
It's all the same in the small towns and big towns |
|
The names might change but across this great land |
|
Just take a ride along any old highway |
