Reno and Me took the freeway
South out of town on the run
Reno was driving he asked me to go with him
So I turned on the radio
I found us some sweet Emmylou
I sang the harmony low down out of key
Reno just howled at the moon
Somwhere outside Kansas City
On the highway that leads to Cheyenne
The radio quit on a song by a Mexican band
I guess we were lost in thoughts of brown skin girls
Took a couple of wrong turns in a row
But Reno and me we just laughed feeling free
It don't matter which way you go
It don't matter which you go
When you calling the highway your home
But every old towns just your past burning down
It don't matter which way you go
All our old friends got married
They do all their business in town
Climbing a ladder that leads to a hole in the ground
Reno and me we talked it all out
One thing we'll never know
What's the point of a race
Where you stay in one place
Believing you've somewhere to go
It don't matter which way you go
When you calling the highway your home
But every old town s just your past burning down
It don't matter which way you go
It don't matter which you go
When you calling the highway your home
But every old town s just your past burning down
It don't matter which way you go
