Lyrics:

My name looks unfamiliar on this sparking marquee sign
And the love that I've been gettin' I can't really call it mine
This blacktop ribbon winds me down an unforgivin' road
When I think about my baby on the other side of home
I say oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh, I gotta go
I say oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh
Hey, hey, hey, on my way
Twenty-three days gone by, why can't eagles fly
Hey, hey, hey, love don't break
Twenty-three nights of blue carry me back to you
Yeah
Another song gets scribbled on this napkin in my lap
As we burn another circle on this God-forsaken map
The droning of the engines and the moaning of the wheels
It's a fortuneteller's melody, it's how you make me feel
I say oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh, I gotta go
I say oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh
Hey, hey, hey, on my way
Twenty-three days gone by why can't eagles fly
Hey, hey, hey, love don't break
Twenty-three nights of blue carry me back to you
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Yeah, Albuquerque's never felt colder
One mile higher all the way to Boulder
Oklahoma City always looks pretty
'Cause it's half way home
Yeah, windshield wipers, broken white lines
Lord, don't let me lose my mind
'Cause twenty-three days of Tennessee time
And I'm back to you
Ooooh, oh-oh-oh, oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, hey, hey, on my way
Twenty-three days gone by why can't eagles fly
Hey, hey, hey, love don't break
Twenty-three nights of blue carry me back to you
Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh
Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh, oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh
Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh, yeah
