Lyrics

[00:07.24] Me and Lonnie thumbed down a Cadillac
[00:13.55] Outside Laredo in the heat of the sun
[00:19.80] The driver was tanned and he looked like a salesman
[00:26.18] We were just children on the run
[00:32.33] He talked real funny like we'd never heard
[00:38.71] Must have been foreign I guess
[00:43.61] And I felt like an actress in an old movie
[00:50.07] As Lonnie and I drove west
[00:55.38] We were saying goodbye to the ones left behind
[01:02.80] Hello to the ones up ahead
[01:08.94] Lonnie and me were just drumming our knees
[01:14.75] While the radio D.J. said
[01:22.37] Keep your eyes open for Lonnie and Josie
[01:28.05] Sixteen and fourteen playing hookey from school
[01:34.26] Last seen they were walking the road by the courtroom
[01:40.75] Downtown Laredo at a quarter past two
[01:46.98]
[01:53.29] Our friend in the front seat turned around and smiled
[01:59.57] Grinning and shaking his head
[02:05.53] Asked us politely where we were going
[02:10.88] Where the sand turns to sea on the coast I said
[02:17.40] We were crossing the border just out of Texas
[02:23.38] Passed the last dusty abandoned old farm
[02:29.42] With the am playing the songs of Sinatra
[02:35.88] And Lonnie sleeping in my arms
[02:40.13]
[02:41.16] We were saying goodbye to the ones left behind
[02:48.46] Hello to the ones up ahead
[02:54.55] Lonnie and me were just drumming our knees
[03:00.42] While the radio D.J. said
[03:07.75] Keep your eyes open for Lonnie and Josie
[03:13.65] Sixteen and fourteen playing hookey from school
[03:19.89] Last seen they were walking the road by the courtroom
[03:25.67] Downtown Laredo at a quarter past two
[03:31.52] Keep your eyes open for Lonnie and Josie
[03:32.64] Our friend in the front seat turned around and smiled
[03:38.14] Sixteen and fourteen playing hookey from school
[03:44.36] Last seen they were walking the road by the courtroom
[03:50.34] Downtown Laredo at a quarter past two
[03:56.64] Keep your eyes open for Lonnie and Josie
[04:02.51] Sixteen and fourteen playing hookey from school
[04:08.66] Last seen they were walking the road by the courtroom
[04:14.87] Downtown Laredo at a quarter past two
[04:19.70]
