Black coffee and her cigarettes
Another day I'd just soon forget
Doin' time with all my old regrets
Runnin' down another sunset
Albuquerque by midnight
Found myself some neon lights
Strong whiskey and a bar fight
On the road again at sunrise
And these, highways and heartaches
Losin' games and bad breaks
Run down and always runnin' out of room
It's these, near misses and high stakes
Out of luck, and out of place
A dollar short and a day late
Nothing left to lose
Girl, it ain't nothin' new
Just my life after lovin' you
Intro
Truckstop, I'm pullin' in
Check the map and hit the road again
Cause, in the rearview lookin' in
I wish I had some coulda beens
And these, highways and heartaches
Losin' games and bad breaks
Run down and always runnin' out of room
It's these, near misses and high stakes
Out of luck, and out of place
A dollar short and a day late
Nothing left to lose
Girl, it ain't nothin' new
Just my life after lovin' you
Somewhere this road gettin' over you
Has gotta end
Someday I'll find someplace I can turn around
But for now
It's gonna be, highways and heartaches
Losin' games and bad breaks
Run down and always runnin' out of room
It's these, near misses and high stakes
Out of luck, and out of place
A dollar short and a day late
Nothing left to lose
Girl, it ain't nothin' new
Just my life after lovin' you
Girl, it ain't nothin' new
Just my life after lovin' you
