Blue Kentucky highway
Headin' for the line
She hadn't said a word all night
But the wheels are turnin' in her mind
Now I was ridin' shotgun
I knew the things it gonna run
Just as soon as she dropped me off
At the side of the road and she let that gravel fly
Now, I'm walkin' in the moonlight
Seein' nothin' but the taillights
And that's a pair of taillights
I may never see again
She hit me with the left and right
Showin' me nothin' but the taillights
That's about as lonely as the highway's ever been
Back here with my thumb out in the wind
Was it somethin' that I did to her
Or the things I never said
I wonder if the way we were
Was only in my head
Now if I even make it back to town
Before the sun comes up
I'm gonna hit every parkin' spot around
'Til I find that pick-up truck
Now I'm talkin' in the moonlight
Seein' nothin' but the taillights
And that's a pair of taillights
I may never see again
She hit me with the left and right
Showin' me nothin' but the taillights
That's about as lonely as a highway's ever been
Back here with my thumb out in the wind
Well, I'll bet right now, she's laughin'
At how, she brought me to my knees
But she won't be laughin' half as loud
When she gives me back my keys
She'll be walkin' in the moonlight
Seein' nothin' but the taillights
That's a pair of taillights
She won't ever see again
She hit me with a left and right
And with nothin' but the taillights
I know that's about as lonely as a highway's ever been
Back here with my thumb out in the wind
