Being on the road without a friend
Can you make feel life's loneliness
And a voice that rides the wind
Stream across the airwaves in a simple country song
One that you don't hear until the moon is full and bright

Well it's Texas once again
One about the good old boy
Who's caught remembering
Images of childhood and the places that he'd been
Lost inside his questions wondering where it all would end

Another midnight on the highway
Houston in the distance
It seems I'm always leaving love behind
Singing along with someone
Whose soul is on the radio
Sounds like me and the good old boy are two of kind

Bedding down in a cheap hotel
Puts you in touch with an emptiness
Players know too well
Comes on strong when you drop your boots sit up on the bed
Trying to keep your thoughts from dancing all around your head

So you fumble with a dime
'til you hear that melody
Singing sad and sweet
There you are again with him somewhere down the line
You're feeling just a little bit better when you hear his guitar whine

Another midnight on the highway
Houston in the distance
It seems I'm always leaving love behind
Singing along with someone
Who's soul is on the radio
Sounds like me and the good old boy are two of kind
Sounds like me and the good old boy are two of kind
