Jim Martin: LISTEN!

Bobby & Carrie

-J. Martin-

Me and Carrie
Were born to ride the wind
Leaving El Paso
And hitting the road
With a guitar strumming
And just the t-shirts on our backs
We were two stoned kids
With nothing to show

Oh we stopped by Sedona
And we picked up some cigarettes
Driving a Chevy
In the heat of the sun
And just like the movies
We rode into the sunset
Hollywood, California
Here we come

Oh but back in the day
We just wasted away
Writing about the times up ahead
Carrie and me
Were just sharing our dreams
As the both of us laid in bed

Keep your eyes out
For Bobby and Carrie
Eighteen and married
And with so much to do
Beyond the broad horizon
And the interstate highways
And all the trails they blazed
As the very last two

Carrie felt like an actress
And I felt like a salesman
Dog in the backseat
Soda pop in the front
And just like the movies
We rode into the sunset
Hollywood, California
Here we come

Oh but back in the day
We just wasted away
Writing about the times up ahead
Carrie and me
Were just sharing our dreams
As the both of us laid in bed

2x
Keep your eyes out
For Bobby and Carrie
Eighteen and married
And with so much to do
Beyond the broad horizon
And the interstate highways
And all the trails they blazed
As the very last two.
