Point Me In The Direction Of Albuquerque

Window walking downtown

feelin mighty good

and I noticed from the corner

how all alone she stood

underneath the lamplight

an angel in disguise

lonely little runaway with teardrops in her eyes



Crazy little rag doll

her hair was wild and tossed

and I put my arm around her

cuz i knew that she was lost

she didnt seem to notice

that anyone was near

until she suddenly turned to me and whispered in my ear



Point me in the direction of Albuquerque

I want to go home and help me get home

Point me in the direction of Albuquerque

I need to get home need to get home



Showed me a ticket for a greyhound bus

her head was lost in time

she didnt know who or where she was

and anyone that helps me

is a real good friend of mine



Point me in the direction of Albuquerque

and help me get home help me get home

Walked her to the station

and kissed away the tears

knowing I'd remember

through all the coming years

rag doll on that greyhound

who waved with all her might

weeped against the window as the bus rolled out of sight



Point me in the direction of Albuquerque

I want to go home and help me get home

Point me in the direction of Albuquerque

I need to get home need to get home



Point me in the direction of Albuquerque
