Eldorado Blue (with Atlanta Pops Orchestra Ensemble)
Eighteen, commencement day
friends moved off, but she stayed
In Eldorado
And married the boy next door
Worked first shift, by the interstate
Selling hot coffee and giving out change for the payphone
Never needed too much more
And every day, someone would ask "Why don't you leave this all behind?"
She'd look up, just kind of laugh and say, "Don't you think it crossed my mind?"
But there ain't nobody waiting down in Arkansas
And I don't know no one in no Baton Rouge
Ain't no way I'm going down to Wichita
And leaving Eldorado blue
