lyrics

It’s high time that I need a resupplying
Of dry goods and good times
This one horse town has been getting me down
I gotta drive a paved road with lines

My bags are packed and I’ve counted my stacks
And it’s seven hours ‘til sundown
I’m gonna kick up dust in this bucket of rust
When I’m Fairbanks bound

She’s going to the city gonna get real pretty
Or at least as fine as Fairbanks can
She’ll get her black hair styled at the only joint for miles
And then she’s gonna see her man

When I picked her up that night, her face was snow white
And her mouth was screwed up in a frown
Until she laughed as we stared at her blown-out hair
When we were Fairbanks bound

It was only two days but at least we got away
And I don’t know how we fit it all in
The Econoline is filled and we’re recalling our thrills
With tired eyes and weary grins

For weeks and years I hold these memories dear
As I think about the friends I found
Spinning yarns about the Marlin’s charm
When we were Fairbanks bound
