Playin' a rodeo in Montana tonight
She's two thousand miles away
Says she loves me on the phone as she cries
Wishes I’d come home to stay

But I'm somewhere outside of Missoula
They just called my name from the stage
When we hung up she was talkin' leavin'
Now how am I supposed to sing and play
She's left me somewhere south of sanity
Still just north of insane

The show is over I tried twice to call her back
But no answer either time
My thoughts are racin' like a fast car 'round the track
Aw and I can't get her off my mind

And I'm somewhere outside Albuquerque
They just called my name from the stage
When we last talked she was talkin' leavin'
Now how am I supposed to sing and play
She's left me somewhere south of sanity
Still just north of

Startin' to believe I might be losin' everything

Still I'm somewhere outside Amarillo
They just called my name from the stage
When we last talked she was talkin' leavin'
But I gotta show I gotta play
Somewhere south of sanity
Still just north of insane
