lyrics

In the parlance of the time they eloped
Went on down to mexico
Got married on the beach
Beyond her parents reach
That’s all that anybody really knows

I can only tell you what I’ve been told
After their “I Do’s” the trail went cold
No one’s seen them alive
Since nineteen sixty five
They just got in their beat up car & drove

They told all their friends
You’ll never hear from us again
Love means more than the color of your skin
Her ma & her pa flew down from Arkansas
But all they found was a road full of dead ends

I like to imagine how it went
A bunch of kids a picket fence
Sometimes you’ve gotta find
A way to leave it all behind
Before you can start to really live

They told all their friends
You’ll never hear from us again
Love means more than the color of your skin
Her ma & her pa flew down from Arkansas
But all they found was a road full of dead ends
All they found was a road full of dead ends
