1
You were hiding in the backseat of my Lincoln
2
Underneath a blanket with your head against the door
3
And I was already halfway through Ohio
4
When I heard your soft voice singing to a song on the radio

Or a gambler running tables in New Orleans

So I put you on a bus back to Boston
14
With some money in your shoe for a meal

And I turn my car in the other direction
16
Just hoping that I hear a note from the backseat
