Well, they say

that Santa Fe

Is less than ninety miles away,

And I got time to roll a number

and rent a car.

Oh, Albuquerque.



I've been flyin'

down the road,

And I've been starvin' to be alone,

And independent from the scene

that I've known.

Albuquerque.



So I'll stop when I can,

Find some fried eggs

and country ham.

I'll find somewhere where

they don't care who I am.

Oh, Albuquerque,

Albuquerque.
