I rode sixteen wheels all the way
Sixteen nights and lonely days
I'm going back, I wish I never came
I'm going someplace where they never say your name

You kept me up all night with your coke and gin
Left me next morning and turned me in
And that's evil, baby you're no good
Well I'd forget you baby if I could

Well you show me the well but you don't let me drink
You threw my heart right in just to watch it sink
And it went down, it went down, it went all the way down
And I'm going there too, over the edge and drown

I'm gonna lay my head on some railroad line
Last thing I'll hear is that engine cry
I'm going back, I wish I never came
I'm going someplace where they never say your name
