Lyrics

[00:07.540] Me and Lonnie thumbed down a Cadillac
[00:13.850] Outside Laredo in the heat of the sun
[00:20.100] The driver was tanned and he looked like a salesman
[00:26.480] We were just children on the run
[00:32.630] He talked real funny like we'd never heard
[00:39.010] Must have been foreign I guess
[00:43.910] And I felt like an actress in an old movie
[00:50.370] As Lonnie and I drove west
[00:55.680] We were saying goodbye to the ones left behind
[01:03.100] Hello to the ones up ahead
[01:09.240] Lonnie and me were just drumming our knees
[01:15.050] While the radio D.J. said
[01:22.670] Keep your eyes open for Lonnie and Josie
[01:28.350] Sixteen and fourteen playing hookey from school
[01:34.560] Last seen they were walking the road by the courtroom
[01:41.050] Downtown Laredo at a quarter past two
[01:47.280]
[01:53.590] Our friend in the front seat turned around and smiled
[01:59.870] Grinning and shaking his head
[02:05.830] Asked us politely where we were going
[02:11.180] Where the sand turns to sea on the coast I said
[02:17.700] We were crossing the border just out of Texas
[02:23.680] Passed the last dusty abandoned old farm
[02:29.720] With the am playing the songs of Sinatra
[02:36.180] And Lonnie sleeping in my arms
[02:40.430]
[02:41.460] We were saying goodbye to the ones left behind
[02:48.760] Hello to the ones up ahead
[02:54.850] Lonnie and me were just drumming our knees
[03:00.720] While the radio D.J. said
[03:08.050] Keep your eyes open for Lonnie and Josie
[03:13.950] Sixteen and fourteen playing hookey from school
[03:20.190] Last seen they were walking the road by the courtroom
[03:25.970] Downtown Laredo at a quarter past two
[03:31.820] Keep your eyes open for Lonnie and Josie
[03:32.940] Our friend in the front seat turned around and smiled
[03:38.440] Sixteen and fourteen playing hookey from school
[03:44.660] Last seen they were walking the road by the courtroom
[03:50.640] Downtown Laredo at a quarter past two
[03:56.940] Keep your eyes open for Lonnie and Josie
[04:02.810] Sixteen and fourteen playing hookey from school
[04:08.960] Last seen they were walking the road by the courtroom
[04:15.170] Downtown Laredo at a quarter past two
[04:20.000]
