Route 99 Lyrics

[1] I saw it in the distance…the neon flashing bright….
Stop in and wet your whistle….cure your appetite…
I thought to myself….seems like the perfect spot…
Ice cold beer and pretzels….the chili’s always hot…
I hit every road house….up and down the line….
Route 99….

[2] I pulled up to a bar stool…juke box playing low…
I said, “Hey bartender,”…. I just gotta know….
Have you seen a brown eyed man…tall and kinda cute…
He had a pool cue in his hand….and a pocket full of loot…
I’ve looked high and low for him….up and down the line…
Route 99….

[CHO:] THAT HONKY TONKIN’ MAN OF MINE…KEEPS ME ON THE RUN…
WELL I DON’T KNOW WHAT I SEE IN HIM….OR WHY HE TURNS ME ON…
HE ROLLED THOSE BIG BROWN EYES AT ME….I FELL INTO HIS ARMS…
THE NEXT THING.. I KNEW…HE WAS UP AND GONE….

[3] There’s miles and miles of highway….from here to Frisco Bay…
The last word that I heard…he was headed out this way… I’ve worn out a set of tires…on this old car of mine…
I ain’t seen hide nor hair…nothing but the signs…
I’ve looked high and low for him….up and down the line…
Route 99…

[CHO:] THAT HONKY TONKIN’ MAN OF MINE…KEEPS ME ON THE RUN…
WELL I DON’T KNOW WHAT I SEE IN HIM….OR WHY HE TURNS ME ON…
HE ROLLED THOSE BIG BROWN EYES AT ME….I FELL INTO HIS ARMS…
THE NEXT THING.. I KNEW…HE WAS UP AND GONE….

[4] Well…it’s the same old story….kinda cut and dried…
He thinks there’s greener pastures….on the other side…
Well I’ve got news to tell him…when I track him down..
He’s about to miss the best thing…if he don’t come around…
Cause I know every honk tonk…up and down the line…
Route 99…
