Following Rita
Made my exit on the turnpike

Saw the stateside toll and shuffled for some change

I paid a man that talked as if he knew me

And I could see it in his eyes
He could tell that I was runnin' away

What are you waitin' for? It's just a minute away

Travel light you might just find yourself there for the day

What are you waitin' for? It's just a minute away

Stopped to make a call and picked up Elvis

Elvis James McCabe, a future millionaire

He wrestled with his thoughts out loud
About two girls that he left behind

And said for forty-five dollars
He could help me on my way and get rich too

What are you waitin' for? It's just a minute away

Travel light you might just find yourself there for the day

What are you waitin' for? It's just a minute away

There was talk about after high school I would get a job

Gig at night and she would go to some community school

But her father changed jobs and we cried together

As her plane was flyin' away

Well, the phone never was enough

For us to hold on to

Now every mile that I drive away

Gets me closer to you, yeah

What are you waitin' for? It's just a minute away

I'm travelin' light you might not want me to stay for the day

What am I waitin' for? It's just a mile away

Following Rita

What am I waitin' for? It's just a mile away

Travel light you might just find yourself there for the day

What are you waitin' for? It's just a minute away
