| Joann was is an awkward position
|
| Very unmarried and starting to show
|
| Joann had wanted to be a beautician
|
| She thought it looked like a good time to go
|
| Got on a greyhound to ride up to Macon
|
| No one is New Brunswick would quite understand
|
| She wouldn’t look at the side of the highway
|
| Where written in spray paint said «Sam loves Joann»
|
| Joann, Joann, how could you leave your man
|
| I’m yours forever in big old blue letters
|

|
| Sam’s on his way to the state Penitentiary
|
| He doesn’t know he’s a father to be
|
| Sam only wanted to borrow a Chevy
|
| But the state locked him up and they threw out the key
|
| Sam hoped to take her away to get married
|
| But he never asked her, so much for big plans
|
| Now the prison bus takes him on down that same highway
|
| Where written in spray paint «Sam loves Joann»
|
| Joann, Joann, how could you leave your man
|
| I’m yours forever in big old blue letters

|
| Funny how things from the heat of the moment
|
| Like making a baby or getting tattooed
|
| Last a lot longer than ever expected
|
| Feelings might fade but the facts never do
|
| It’s all the same in the small towns and big towns
|
| The names might change but across this great land
|
| Just take a ride along any old highway
|
