Chasing the lights down the road All the way to Louisiana. He's gone 600 miles But there's still a thousand to go. The moon's on the horizon, Pulling his heart like the tide. He's found a queen down in Old New Orleans And the distance is driving him wild. There's a thunderbird under the hood And he'll push her as fast as she'll take him. As the radio plays in the dark, He'd fly if he could. The road's never went winding But his heart is open wide. He's found a queen down in old New Orleans And he can't get her out of his mind. The sun it sneaks up from behind And pushes from across Alabama. The windows are down And he's feeling the temperature climb. He's almost to the delta And he's traveled so far. He's found a queen down in old New Orleans And soon she'll be back in his arms. He's found a queen down in old New Orleans And soon she'll be back in his arms. End.
