[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
