Lyrics

By the time I get to Fresno, there'll be nothing more for me to think
I'll be wondering where the time went, and I'll have to stop and have a drink
By the time I get to Bakersfield, I'll be so wired that it won't seem real
By the time I lay down my head, you'll be someone that I can forget

By the time you open up your eyes, won't be wondering if it's a surprise
I'll be far away and without fear, and the road ahead will be so clear
By the time you lay down your head, I'll be dreaming in a different bed
By the time I get to Mexico, youll be just someone that I used to know

By the time that you close your eyes won't be wondering if it's a surprise
I'll be far away and without fear, and the road ahead will be so clear
By the time you lay down your head, I'll be dreaming in a different bed
By the time I get to Mexico, youll be just someone that I used to know
