about

Once upon a time a girl grabbed a guy's heart with both hands. And the guy chased the girl. He chased her south, into America's heartland. He was sweating in the humidity. Alone beside the Mississippi. In the end the guy came to see that he was just chasing after the sun.

lyrics

She was a waiter and he sold wine
Sun setting the both of them looking for a good time
Louisville, Kentucky – Molly Malone dance floor
Sun going down, can’t ask for more
Going down where the snow don’t fall
Going south gonna miss you all

She left home at twelve looking for a life
Wound up in Minnesota with nothing but an army knife
Hitched a ride south on a desolate interstate
Watched the sun going down over the prairie night after night
Going down where the snow don’t fall
Going south gonna miss you all

He had an accent, yeah the ladies loved his drawl
Sung up a storm in the karaoke halls
Fell in love with Cora on the first night
Chased her south in the fading light
Going down where the snow don’t fall
Going south gonna miss you all
