Made Nogales overnight
Thru the desert in the yellow light
Missing everything I left behind
Will they see me coming
Will they know I'm running
Got to Tucson in the dark
Keep an eye out for the law
A hundred miles or more from a broken heart
Can they see me coming
Will they no I'm running
Chorus
It's a long long way to Gila Bend
One silver dollar in my hand
Roads twists and turns is there no end
When I get there I can lay my head in Gila Bend
Saw a chuch along the way
A place to kneel to hide and pray
Help me make it maybe one more day
Or they'll see me coming
Will they know I'm running
