Fred Eaglesmith - Milly's Cafe lyrics



They put up the sign for the very last time at Milly's Cafe
They loaded their stuff into the car and they drove away
Milly looked back one last time and when she turned around she was crying
Billy just listened to the songs the radio played
They drove all the way from Fort Worth to Amarillo
When Milly woke up she had makeup all over her pillow
Billie had stopped at easy pawn and bought them up a couple of guns
Tomorrow he said was gonna be a brand new day
Mille and Billy tore up the entire West
They started holdin up liquor store and then they turned to banks
And it wasn't very long before their picture was on the post office wall
And it seemed like the whole world was lookin' for them

CHORUS:
And the roads just get rougher
Out in west texas
The cowboys are tougher
And the young girls are restless
And the winds take the towns
And their ain't any signs
But theirs always a hill to climb
On the West Texas skyline

Milly was raised to Christians in Abilene
Her father was a preacher in the biggest church you ever did see
When word came down about Milly and Billy
He made a call up to New York City
Sent for some boys to come down and set things straight
He met Milly in El Paso
Underneith a tree in the parking lot of a motel
And the next day when Billie went in the bank
She started the car and she drove away
When Billy came out, he never had a chance

CHORUS

The put up the sign one more time at Millys cafe
They loaded the stuff out of the car and into the doorway
Milly looked back one last time
When she turned around she was cryin
Her daddy just got in the car and drove away

CHORUS
