Out In The Middle Of Nowhere

Out In The Middle Of Nowhere

Two hobos sitting by the track
one named Billy and the other one Jack
living in a burned out cadillac
out in the middle of nowhere

don't know how they got that way
living dreams of yesterday
they're better off living in another day
it seems so long ago

chorus:
Billy was a star rodeo clown
broke his leg and it put him down
his girl ran off to another town and
now she's gone, love can break most any man
out of the fire to the frying pan
gonna get along if they can out in the middle of nowhere.

showing their scars from way back when
a coyote howling in the wind
talking bout the places that they've been
when the sun goes down
there's a blanket of light coming or'e the plains
a freight train humming that sweet refrain
jump on a flat car again move on down the line

chorus:
Jack ran a bar in New Orleans
Cajun spice and the finer things,
had the prettiest girl he'd ever seen
but now she's gone
love can break most any man out of the fire to the
frying pan gonna get along if they can
out in the middle of nowhere

Two hobos sitting by the track
one named Billy and the other one Jack
living in a burned out cadillac
out in the middle of nowhere
