She left, it was a cold night
Four on the floor, behind her the city lights
In the back seat, her baby asleep
Couldn't hear mama softly weep
Now it's one more, dusty motel
One more night, one more town in the rear view mirror
One more, chance for freedom
On this long dirt road that has no end
On this long dirt road that has no end
Days turned into weeks
While mama cried her baby back to sleep
Love was just down the hall
The T.V. preached, she could have it all
But for now it's one more, dusty motel
One more night, one more town in the rear view mirror
One more, chance for freedom
On this long dirt road that has no end
On this long dirt road that has no end
Hey mister, she said in a whisper
I saw you on the T.V. screen last night
Take me down, down in the water
If not for me, then for my baby daughter
'Cause tomorrow there'll be one more, dusty motel
One more night, one more town in the rear view mirror
One more, chance for freedom
On this long dirt road that has no end
On this long dirt road that has no end
