Back to Santa Fe (single)

about

There are lots of things I love about this song, but probably the biggest one is that the first line basically summarizes about 90% of all songs ever written.

LYRICS

I loved you but you didn’t love me back and it all went straight to hell
Now everything I own is in the back of my Chevelle
It’s three AM and I’m sleeping in the Walmart parking lot
Got a gear shift digging in the small of my back and I'm freezing my bejeebedees off
Don’t know what I’m doing tomorrow, don’t ask me 'bout yesterday
Maybe I'll just go back to Santa Fe

Maybe it’s time to find something better ‘cuz I’m running out of aces to fold
Maybe it’s time to try for warmer weather and get this body out of the cold
Maybe I’ll go, maybe I’ll stay
Maybe I wouldn’t have it any other way
And maybe I’ll just go back to Santa Fe

Maybe I’ll get some money together and fix up this old car
Drive it out to California and try to be a star
Or maybe I’ll go to Nashville, down to 16th Avenue
Write me a couple of songs about the way that I feel about you
And if it all falls to pieces, lord, and there’s the devil’s hell to pay
Then I guess I’ll just go back to Santa Fe

Maybe it’s time to find something better ‘cuz I’m running out of aces to fold
Maybe it’s time to try for warmer weather and get this body out of the cold
Maybe I’ll go, maybe I’ll stay
Maybe I wouldn’t have it any other way
And maybe I’ll just go back to Santa Fe

Maybe it’s time to find something better ‘cuz I’m running out of aces to fold
Maybe it’s time to try for warmer weather and get this body out of the cold

Maybe it’s time to find something better ‘cuz I’m running out of aces to fold
Maybe it’s time to try for warmer weather and get this body out of the cold
Maybe I’ll go, maybe I’ll stay
Maybe I wouldn’t have it any other way
And maybe I’ll just go back to Santa Fe

Yeah, maybe I’ll just go back to Santa Fe
Probably where I’ll end up anyway
Well, I wonder if the sun is shining today back in Santa Fe
