[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
