I heard you were freaking out And moving to California They say it's drying up You know I tried to warn ya Big dreams and money schemes The salty taste of freedom Hearts of stone and golden thrones With no one there to bleed I hear your song about me On someone's radio You stop and think about me When all your lights are low If I'm going south, I'm going all the way to Mexico You called my mother To tell me you were leaving She said hurry up Or you're just make believing Hard times and lying eyes Wash out all the beaches Dial tones and telephones No one left to reach ya I hear your song about me On someone's radio You stop and think about me When all your lights are low But if I'm going south, I'm going all the way to Mexico You watch it spin in California I'll dance the new year in 'Cause then I'll be driving down to Mexico Until the highway ends Until the highway ends
