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.
