Don't want to ride that lonesome highway anymore Don't want to live so wild and free I ride along with an empty seat beside me A country song is playing on the radio Station's fading out, Lord knows I know the feeling A different road but it's the same old rodeo Late Sunday night and the radio is lousy Lots of static and fanatics on the dial These tired eyes they must be getting drowsy Headlight's glaring I could swear I saw you smile Don't want to ride that lonesome highway anymore Don't want to live so wild and free Won't you please fill this space inside me And take your place in that empty seat beside me Side of the road A drive-in movie tonight shows memories of you Radio's off but I'm still pushing buttons I've just got to change these thoughts or I won't last Crazy idea 'bout the windshield and the mirror Meaning's clear One's the future one's the past Don't want to ride this lonesome highway anymore...
