Last Train Home
Lyricist:Nanci Griffith
By the time I get to Phoenix Was the last song on your mind the day you left And you woke up in Nogales With tequila with her name across your chest
And you've stumbled through the morning In these border tourists dusty avenues Singing, 'Everyday's the hurting kind And everyday you live, you're born to lose'
You missed the last train home The whistle blew and now she's gone West Texas dust beneath your nails You're hammered down the heartbreak trail And you missed the last train home That whistle blew she's solid gone
Now you're wandering El Paso Searching for your broken heart and the truth She was all you ever had And the only thing you ever had to lose
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And with a jukebox playing Charlie Rich You're lining up your shots at half past noon You threw your ring across the bar And sang along to good time Charlie's got the blues
You missed the last train home The whistle blew and now she's gone West Texas dust beneath your nails You're hammered down the heartbreak trail And you missed the last train home The whistle blew she's solid gone
Now don't go to Tulsa where she's bound You'll end up six feet underground Your ex-friend, Charlie's there abouts He never missed the last train out
You missed the last train home That whistle blew she's solid gone You missed the last train home That whistle blew she's solid gone
