lyrics

I’m outside of Reno, and I’m headed your way
In a bathroom on the Donner Pass
A ghost crawled in my face
Love don’t know I’m coming
Love won’t let me stay
I’m outside of Reno, headed back your way

Drove your Volvo to the donut store
When your jaw was wired shut
Didn’t matter where the skin turned red
I kept my collar up

That cop you kicked right in the balls
Chalk it up to ACAB, babe
Sold a mint Batman to bail you out
You whispered: “Happy birthday!”

But you always told me
“You know where to find me
Just read the back of the snow”
You can hang up now
Or you can keep laughing
Whisper so he don’t know

I’m outside of Reno, and I’m headed your way
In a bathroom on the Donner Pass
A ghost crawled in my face
Love don’t know I’m coming
Love won’t let me stay
I’m outside of Reno, headed back your way

Sharee had a barn with a disco ball
Or she did—till you came along
I had a heart that couldn’t do winter
But you always knew the next song

And I was this close to telling you something
If only I knew what
Like your uncle’s knife on bingo night
Can’t leave it up to luck

But you always told me
“You know where to find me
Just read the back of the snow”
You can hang up now
Or you can keep laughing
Whisper so he don’t know

I’m outside of Reno, and I’m headed your way
In a bathroom on the Donner Pass
A ghost crawled in my face
Love don’t know I’m coming
Love won’t let me stay
I’m outside of Reno, headed back your way
