Long Lost Smile

She squeezed the handle, topped the tank off
 Pulled out her necklace and kissed the cross
 El Paso he waved, horizon off the hood
 She's going through with something
 He never thought she would
 By now he's rolling over on his back
 He ain't waking up
 Not with all the liquors he's had
 She'll be halfway to Longview by the time he starts to stir
 By the time he opens his eyes she'll already be a blur
 You go girl, get in that Cadillac
 There ain't no lie in looking back
 She tore outta that station
 Dust and gravel flying
 Sideswiped a couple of highway signs
 Tore off both mirrors
 Something free and wild
 Yeah, seems like ages but there's that smile
 That long lost smile
 Staring through the windshield
 A new look in her eyes
 A conscience as clear as the Texas sky
 She ran out of patience, out of strength
 And out of tears
 He ran out of second chances
 And now she's outta here
 You go girl, don't look back
 And there ain't no lie in living like that
 She tore outta that station
 Dust and gravel flying
 Sideswiped a couple of highway signs
 Tore off both mirrors
 Something free and wild
 Yeah, seems like ages but there's that smile
 That long lost smile, tthat long lost smile
 Yeah, you go girl, you go girl
 Hey, you go girl
 You go girl
