Late one night on a road in Texas
I pulled into an all-night cafe
What's my pleasure?
Well, ma'am the fact is, I don't know
Sat down next to a Rajun' Cajun
A black haired beauty from New Orleans
Did my duty, can I buy you a drink, dear?
She said, "Please"
So we rolled right along
And the night got long
So I said, "How would you like it to be?"
Then she sang her song
Said, "If I come along
You must find a place in your heart for me"
I was lost on a road to nowhere
And asked if she was goin' my way
She was late for a date with no one
So please don't leave
She'd just left a love that was dying
And had no plans of goin' back
I caught her eyes as she was crying
"Let's make tracks"
So we rolled right along
And the night got long
So I said, "How would you like it to be?"
Then she sang her song
Said, "If I come along
You must find a place in your heart for me"
She said, "I'll follow, I'll follow you, on you there"
Your eyes say something, your heart better care
You're lost and you're lonely, I've been too long there
So I'll follow, I'll follow you anywhere
