Billy Joel - Stop In Nevada lyrics

She wouldn't listen to advice

And though he never tried to make her

She often thought it would be nice

Oh, and now she's headin' out to California

It's been a long time comin'

But she's feelin' like a woman tonight

And she left a little letter,

Said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada

Goodbye. Goodbye.

She tried for years to be a good wife

It never quite got off the ground

And all those stories of the good life

Convinced her not to hang around

Oh, and now she's headin' out to California

And she doesn't know what's comin'

But she sure knows what she's leavin' behind

And she left a little letter,

Said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada.

Goodbye. Goodbye.

And though she finds it hard to leave him

She knows it would be worse to stay

He wouldn't understand the reasons

That make a woman run away

Oh, and now she's headin' out to California

With some money in her pocket,

She's a rocket on the Fourth of July

And she left a little letter,

Said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada.

Goodbye. Goodbye.

(Repeat last chorus
