Dim Lights and Sawdust

Got my thumb stuck out for Amarillo
I guess any place north of here will do
We shared our first kiss down by that willow
When she could smile and our love was brand new

Now she's a lady, but I'm still the same
She likes the bright lights, I still like 'em low
And I like sawdust, there's no one to blame
I see in her eyes that it's time to go

So I'll tip my hat and give her a wink
She can keep the pickup, I'll catch a ride
No time to worry and no time to think -
Just find me some music, let these boots slide

Got my thumb stuck out,I'm headed that way
Cowgirls like dim lights and sawdust they say
