The Road to Gila Bend
Made Nogales over night
through the desert in yellow light
missing everithing I left behind
Will they see me coming ?
Do they know I'm running?
Got to Tucson in the dark
Keeping eye out for the law
500 miles or more
from a broken heart
Can they see me coming?
Do they know I'm running?
Its a long long way to Gila bend
One silver dollar in my hand
Road twists and turns is there no end
When I get there I can lay my head in Gila Bend
Saw a church along the way
A place to hide, to kneel and pray
help me make it maybe one more day
Can they see me coming?
Do they know I'm running?
It's a long long way to Gila Bend
One silver dollar in my hand
Road twists and turns is there no end
When I get there I can lay my head in Gila Bend
