lyrics

She sold her soul for the price of a ticket to new orleans
and a box of unrequited love
in a worn out t-shirt and a faded pair of jeans
she trades the passion for the drug

and she would always wake up
from someone else's dream
getting high on acetylene
she don't run on naked love
she don't need no gasoline
she needs she needs
alcohol and nicotine

the names the faces run together
the loves the lusts the well why nots
some were bad and some were better
but in the end that's all she's got

when will this come around again

and if she falls asleep in georgia
well, she dreams of new mexico
and though her father may have warned her
in the end she'll never know
