Left Turn On A Redlight Songtext

It's nine o'clock at this old station And my silver linin' ride is right on time And as I buy myself a one-way ticket For somewhere else on down the line And I see that on their faces Of a people that will never come home And when I stare into the mirror, mama See myself all alone And did you ever stop to wonder About the times that she laid by your side When you know that I was right And you finally realize You took a left turn on a red light Sun shines down on the desert And it seems to make my life a haze And I dream of my childhood sweetheart And the freedom that I had in those days When I wake from all my dreamin' Will this boxcar always be my lonely home, yeah Well I don't know where I am And I really don't give a damn This crazy life of mine will soon be gone And did you ever stop to wonder About the times that she laid by your side When you know that I was right And you finally realize You took a left turn on a red light Well it's nine o'clock at this old station Once again my ride is right on time And as I buy myself another ticket, Lord For somewhere else on down the line Well I'll always be a rambler Well the ones I love always keep tellin' me You stare too long in the mirror, son Someday you'll be too blind to see And now I can stop my wonderin' About the times that she laid by my side Now I know that I was right And I finally realize I took a left turn on a red light
