From Baltimore to LA by way of Mexico Tryin' to find the girl I met one night in Tupelo Not far enough to ride inside so I have to ride the blinds Looking for a woman Lord that's heavy on my mind.
From Chicago to Phoenix, Lord, I try to understand How a woman of the world can rob the soul of a man From the backside of Dallas to the streets of El Paso Finds me looking for the girl I met in Tupelo.

As my mind races back to the night in Tupelo As she laid her body close to mine While the night changed to day with the dawn she slipped away And after miles and miles and sleepless nights she's still heavy on my mind.
From Chicago to Phoenix, Lord, I try to understand How a woman of the world can rob the soul of a man From the backside of Dallas to the streets of El Paso Finds me looking for the girl I met in Tupelo...
