Lyrics

Albuquerque
Written by Ross Gordon Cambrin

Driving along, singing a song.
Riding so fast like a man on the run.
I got tunes to cruise, an American nation.
Feeling my soul round about ten,
Found a motel at the road in the bend.
The Shady Spot, a night of temptation.

Life gets a bit too complicated.
Some fake it better than the rest.
In my confusion I’m here for the ride until I die.
When all is said and done,
Like gangsters on the run,
It’s time to duck and dive,
Rock and ride,
Straight to Albuquerque.

Time to get up, time for that cup.
Get on the road I don’t want to get stuck,
In that seedy town, an industrial wasteland.
Thinking of her, memories occur,
Sharp as a Knife but the road is blur,
And I make my choice and I stare at the nation.

Life gets a bit too complicated.
Some fake it better than the rest.
In my confusion I’m here for the ride until I die.
When all is said and done,
Like gangsters on the run,
It’s time to duck and dive,
Rock and ride,
Straight to Albuquerque.

Quarter to Eight, the road is so straight.
I’m going nuts while I’m crossing this state.
Well, I’m getting close, close to the junction.

When I get there I’ll do my biding.
I’ll rest and relax for a while,
Cause staying’s not my style.
Another day, another mile.
When all is said and done,
Like gangsters on the run,
It’s time to lock and load,
Hit the road, left at Albuquerque.
