A steady run of one night stands
From one town to the next
How long has this been going on
Can't even start to guess
Most of the time I feel alright
With the life I chose to lead
Tonight I'm not myself at all
So pardon me
From Wichita to Arkansas
And every mile in between
A lady friend in every town
Waiting for the phone to ring
I know what you're thinking now
And, yes, at times it's like a dream
It's getting late and I'm awake
So pardon me
Pardon me if I cry
Pardon me if you don't mind
I wouldn't change a single thing
As crazy as that seems
Tonight if I should fall apart
Pardon me
From one town to the next
How long has this been going on
Can't even start to guess
Most of the time I feel alright
With the life I chose to lead
Tonight I'm not myself at all
So pardon me
From Wichita to Arkansas
And every mile in between
A lady friend in every town
Waiting for the phone to ring
I know what you're thinking now
And, yes, at times it's like a dream
It's getting late and I'm awake
So pardon me
Pardon me if I cry
Pardon me if you don't mind
I wouldn't change a single thing
As crazy as that seems
Tonight if I should fall apart
Pardon me
