Lyrics:

Friday night's pay night, guys fresh out of work

Talking about the weekend, trying to scrub off the dirt

Some heading home to their families, some wearing trouble on their shirts

Some driving down to Stovell just looking to get hurt

I work for the county out on 95

Just holding that red flag, watching the traffic pass me by

All day I keep a picture of my baby in my head

At night I dream I'm with her, laying in my bunkhouse bed

Seen her at the canteen down at the Legion Hall

She come in with her brothers, standing back up against the wall

Me and her we'd go walking down by them winding tracks

Well one day I looked straight at her and she looked straight back

Grey clouds stretch across the white moon

Sitting in the backyard in my old car, we hum out of tune

Well I saved my money, and I put it all away

I went to see her daddy, we didn't have much to say

He said, ""Now son, can't you see she's just a little girl

Who don't know nothing 'bout the meanness in this world""

Took off down into Florida, yeah, we got along all right

One day her brothers came and got her and they took me in a black and white

The prosecutor kept his promise that he made on that day

Well she was sad and the judge was mad, they put me straight away

Well they said she was too young, she was no younger than I've been

When she put her arms around me and the night close in

Well sometimes I dream of getting out of here, heading down towards them old tracks

I swore I'd come and get her but I know I ain't never going back

There's nights I can't sleep no matter how hard I try

So from my window, I watch the moonlight fall on the far hillside

I imagine I put on my jacket, go down to this little roadside bar

Pick a stranger and spin around the dance floor to a Mexican guitar
