Been runnin' miles down the same old highway
Watchin' the world just fly right by
Stare out the window and sometimes wonder
'Bout everything I left behind

Can't complain, I'm still here
Work's been steady and the skies are clear

They ain't as blue as the ones I left behind
I can't get them off my mind
No matter where I go, all I know is
I've crossed all 50 state lines
Driven under every kind of sky
No matter where I go
They ain't as blue as the ones back home

There's pretty girls from here to south Sioux Falls
I see 'em dancin' in the barroom lights
They're gonna make somebody happy someday
But when I look in their eyes

They ain't as blue as the ones I left behind
I can't get them off my mind
No matter where I go, all I know is
I've crossed all 50 state lines
Driven under every kind of sky
But no matter where I go
They ain't as blue as the ones back home
As the ones back home

They ain't as blue as the ones I left behind
I can't get them off my mind
No matter where I go, all I know is
I've crossed all 50 state lines
Driven under every kind of sky
And no matter where I go
They ain't as blue as the ones back home
As the ones back home
