I was out on the highway
I was out on my feet
I was tired and hungry
I was late for the meet
I had a red sky behind me
I had the bad guys on my tail
I had a hundred different reasons
To keep me falling aw---ay
I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you
I had the desert on both sides now
Well I remember that old saying
'bout how good tomorrow will be
But will I be lucky to see
With a red sky's lucky for me
Solo: Same chords as verses
In my dreams there is a picture
Of me in a big gold frame
And the people that I've never seen
Are pointing at my name
I had a red sky behind me
