287 Lyrics

Two eighty seven, North bound outta Amarillo

The rain is pourin' down and beatin' on my window

I gotta get home to the mountains, and I will if the Lord's a-willin'

Two eighty seven, Northbound outta Amarillo

Well, I left home 'bout a week ago, chasing that Texas sun

The promise of a new day, new beginnings had begun

But the clouds rolled in and the rain fell down like tears right outta Heaven

Now here I am, fighting the wind on two eighty seven

Two eighty seven, North bound outta Amarillo

The rain is pourin' down and beatin' on my window

I gotta get home to the mountains, and I will if the Lord's a-willin'

Two eighty seven, Northbound outta Amarillo

I'm heading out of Childress, trying to make up time

Got me a gas station coffee, headin' down the line

Man, there ain't no doubt about it, good living's hard to find

There ain't no shorter way to Mountain Daylight Time

Two eighty seven, North bound outta Amarillo

The rain is pourin' down and beatin' on my window

I gotta get home to the mountains, and I will if the Lord's a-willin'

Two eighty seven, Northbound outta Amarillo

I said, two eighty seven, Northbound outta Amarillo
