On the road without a friend
  Can make you feel life's loneliness
  In a voice that rides the wind
  Streaming 'cross the airwaves
  In a simple country song
  The one that you don't hear
  Until the moon is full
  
  It was Texas once again
  The one about the good ol' boy
  Who's caught rememberin'
  Images of childhood
  And the places that he'd been
  Caught up in his questions
  Wonderin' where it would end
  
  Another midnight on the highway
  Dallas in the distance
  Seems I'm always leavin' love behind
  Singin' along with someone
  Who's soul is on the radio
  Sounds like me and the good ol' boy
  Are two of a kind
  
  Bedding down in a cheap motel
  Puts you in touch with an emptiness
  That players know too well
  It comes on strong when you drop your boots
  And sit up on the bed
  And try to keep your thoughts from dancing
  'Round the room
  
  So you fumble with a line
  'Til you hear that melody
  Singing sad and sweet
  And there you are again with him
  Somewhere down the line
  You're feelin' just a little bit better
  When you hear his guitar whine
  
  Another midnight on the highway
  Dallas in the distance
  Seems I'm always leavin' love behind
  Singin' along with someone
  Who's soul is on the radio
  Sounds like me and the good ol' boy
  Are two of a kind
