[Verse 1] I'm a high plains drifter With dust on my boots A busted map in my pocket And a name I can't use I rolled out at sunrise Past the last grain line Still tasting that goodbye Like rust on my tongue [Pre-Chorus] I asked every diner I asked every bar "Have you seen that girl?" They just point to my scar One more mile One more town I'm not turning back Till I track her down [Chorus] High plains drifter I'm still on the trail Bad girl, bad girl You left me here to fail High plains drifter I ain't hard to find I'm looking for the one I lost in the town behind (High plains drifter) (Lost in the town behind) [Verse 2] There was a blue dress spinning Near the feed store door A laugh like a match flare Then it hit the floor You took my ring off Left it by the sink Said "don't come after me" But I couldn't think [Pre-Chorus] Now the moon keeps moving Over empty land And every gas station mirror Shows this same old man One more mile One more town I'm not turning back Till I track her down [Chorus] High plains drifter I'm still on the trail Bad girl, bad girl You left me here to fail High plains drifter I ain't hard to find I'm looking for the one I lost in the town behind (High plains drifter) (Lost in the town behind) [Bridge] If I find your shadow Under some storefront sign I'll knock once, sweetly And ask for my time If you need a storm Then I know the way But if you want me gone Say it to my face [Final Chorus] High plains drifter I'm still on the trail Bad girl, bad girl You left me here to fail High plains drifter I ain't hard to find I'm looking for the one I lost in the town behind (High plains drifter) (Lost in the town behind)
