Drivin outta vegas in their automobile
She was in the back seat while he was at the wheel
With the windows wide open
All the money from the store, theyd gambled away
He said the best laid plans often go astray
She took the page of a book and turned it down
She lit a cigarette, she didnt make a sound
And I know, if wed had just one more chance, he said
I know, wed finally hit the big one at last, she said
Chorus:
(instead of) another lost weekend
Lost weekend
Another lost weekend
Lost weekend
Pull over soon, she said, its no big deal,
You can take any exit that you happen to feel
Is the right one
The right one
As she slowly blew her smoke out the rear wind vent
She thought back on all the letters shed sent
For a contest to be on a quiz game show
Maybe I shoulda stayed in school, he said
Yeah, I knowccstart your own business cleanin swimming pools, she said
Chorus repeat x2
She leaned over the front seat and twiddled with the radio dial
She looked out the window, saw a sign, and both of them began to smile
Theres a place we can stay at... its up another mile.
