You're sleeping on the bed right in front of me
I found some paper by the desk in the lobby
I'm trying, quiet, not to wake you up
As the Tucson sun is coming up

I couldn't sleep
There's a TV in the lounge, but the buttons confuse me
And you're in there trying to look some things up
As the Tucson sun is coming up

Streetlights are turning off
The guests are waking up

As the train keeps rolling by like every hour
And the cars start stumbling by outside
It's time to find the way to my room
To get some sleep

I'm trying to find the way to Bisbee
With a map that I found in the lobby
Stop for a shot from a little shop-owner
With that Tucson sun on my shoulders

And then you go through the Mule Pass Tunnel
And this town
This town has got the biggest hole I've ever seen
Hot sun's going down over Bisbee

Streetlights are turning on again
Everyone's going home

As the train keeps rolling by like every hour
And the cars start stumbling by outside
It's time to find the way to my room
To get some sleep

Look out the window, got to run to get home
You see, this train's only going home three times a week
So, I've got to get out, oh, this hotel room and
Run through the lobby with my stuff across the street

To that train, that's been rolling through the whole night long
As the cars start rumbling by, I'm stumbling across the street
The air outside's still got the heat from the day
I'm running through the doors, weaving through the seats of the station
Praying that they wait (praying that they wait)
One minute more (got to find a way)
Just stay until I climb aboard (got to find a way)
Find myself a seat to get some sleep
