Corn fields on either side and
White lines, to the horizon
Nebraska with a broken heart
Now that’s a lonesome state to drive in
And the sky is as black now as my, coffee is cold
It’s two in the morning and I’ve got a long way to go but those
Red light on the radio tower
Flashing slowly for the tired and the lonely
Red lights on the radio tower
Like a long lost city skyline I wonder if I will find my way
back home
Rear view as clear as hindsight
Its just a dark empty road that I’ve left behind me
Lost and alone I reach out for my stereo
Is there anybody else out here tonight
But then through the static I hear a sad old country song
And my homesick heart it just starts beating right along with those
Red light on the radio tower
Flashing slowly for the tired and the lonely
Red lights on the radio tower
Like an old familiar skyline, won’t you help me to find my way
back home
