HE WAS GLUED
TO THE TV
WHEN SHE ASKED HIM
FOR THE KEYS
SAID I'M GOIN'
TO THE MARKET
IS THERE
ANYTHING YOU NEED
THE FIRST QUARTER
WAS UNDERWAY
HE NEVER
MISSED A PLAY
SHE PULLED OUT
OF THE DRIVEWAY
TOOK A LEFT
AT THE LIGHT
DIDN'T STOP
AT THE MARKET
SHE JUST DROVE
RIGHT ON BY
ACROSS
THE RAILROAD TRACKS
SHE NEVER
ONCE LOOKED BACK
SHE WENT OUT FOR
CIGARETTES
AND JUST KEPT
DRIVIN' ON
HE DOESN'T EVEN
KNOW IT YET
BUT SHE'S GONE
AS FAR AWAY
AS SHE CAN GET
PAST THE POINT
OF NO REGRET
SHE WENT OUT FOR
CIGARETTES
AND JUST KEPT
DRIVIN' ON
HALFTIME IS OVER
THE SUN IS SINKIN' LOW
IT'S ALMOST TIME
FOR SUPPER
BUT THERE'S NOTHIN'
ON THE STOVE
HE LOOKS UP
FROM HIS EASY CHAIR
HE JUST NOTICED
SHE'S NOT THERE
SHE MADE A STOP
AT THE BANK
TOOK OUT
SOME CASH
NOW SHE'S A-RACIN'
DOWN THE HIGHWAY
ON A FULL TANK OF GAS
AS FAST AS SHE CAN GO
TO WHERE
SHE DOESN'T KNOW
SHE WENT OUT FOR
CIGARETTES
AND JUST KEPT
DRIVIN' ON
HE DOESN'T EVEN
KNOW IT YET
BUT SHE'S GONE
AS FAR AWAY
AS SHE CAN GET
PAST THE POINT
OF NO REGRET
SHE WENT OUT FOR
CIGARETTES
AND JUST KEPT
DRIVIN' ON
SHE WENT OUT FOR
CIGARETTES
AND DROVE ON
