I told you not to call me anymore
I didn’t hear from you so
I headed out the door
I took my baggage and I headed west
I thought I’d clear my head
But when I crossed that Texas line
I got drunk instead
Don’t look back now
There’s nothing more to see
If I break down in Texas
Please don’t look for me
I’m running low on gasoline
And that cup of dreams is empty
You weren’t there
Then I don’t expect you to be now
I’ll get along without you
Somehow
I broke down and called you today
You seemed surprised to hear
That I was miles away
I told you everything you shoulda done
It was just no use
See I was lonesome for you
I needed some excuse
To look back now
There’s nothing more to see
If I break down in Texas
Please don’t look for me
I’m running low on gasoline
And that cup of dreams is empty
You weren’t there
Then I don’t expect you to be now
I’ll get along without you
Somehow
There’s an open sky in Texas
Here’s a world I’d never see
I’ll just fade into the desert
Don’t look for me
I told you not to call me anymore
If I break down in Texas
Please don’t look for me
I’m running low on gasoline
And that cup of dreams is empty
You weren’t there
Then I don’t expect you to be now
I’ll get along without you
Somehow
I’ll get along without you
I didn’t hear from you so
I headed out the door
I took my baggage and I headed west
I thought I’d clear my head
But when I crossed that Texas line
I got drunk instead
Don’t look back now
There’s nothing more to see
If I break down in Texas
Please don’t look for me
I’m running low on gasoline
And that cup of dreams is empty
You weren’t there
Then I don’t expect you to be now
I’ll get along without you
Somehow
I broke down and called you today
You seemed surprised to hear
That I was miles away
I told you everything you shoulda done

I’ll get along without you
Somehow
I’ll get along without you
