Faron Young – Night Coach lyrics

Composer(s) – David Hall and Louis Redding

On a night coach out of Dallas headin' for the bright lights of LA
There's not too much in Dallas to make a man who's free unpack and stay
I guess I've been a lotta miles and still ain't got no where
Tonight I'm leavin' Dallas maybe she'll be waitin' for me there

Last week it was Houston the week before somewhere in New Orleans
With a pretty green-eyed redhead
Who swore that she could fill my life with dreams
But what she had to offer came as no surprise to me
Tonight I'm leavin' Dallas headin' for the bright lights of LA

But I wonder if I'm wastin' my time
‘Coz what it takes to satisfy most people never find
Next week I might spend sometime
In the foothills of the mountains or by the sea
Somewhere there must be someone with love that will belong to only me
So night coach take me out of here can't stay another day
Tonight I'm leavin' Dallas headin' for the bright lights of LA

But I wonder if I'm wastin' my time
‘Coz what it takes to satisfy most people never find
Next week I might spend sometime
In the foothills of the mountains or by the sea
Somewhere there must be someone with love that will belong to only me
So night coach take me out of here can't stay another day
Tonight I'm leavin' Dallas headin' for the bright lights of LA

Tonight I'm leavin' Dallas headin' for the bright lights of LA
