Never on the Map Songtext
von Maya de Vitry

In the hidden hills of Pittsburgh, way up above the streets
They were on their way to Montreal or bound for New Orleans
We were westbound in a Saturn, west and everywhere between
Once you hear about those trains, you ride forever in your dreams

Cory knew the songs, he had his own guitar
Ellie knit and sang a bit and let the strangers talk
Nick played spoons and I played fiddle, we slept under the stars
Where one Arizona sunrise stays forever in your heart

When you go out on that road, you never quite come back
There′s a river runs right through ya, it's never on the map


Mr. Cash, what do we owe you for those tickets to the west?
We sang your songs for oranges and mac and cheese and bread
Oh, the dew of Colorado′s still my favorite coldest bed
Yes, all across this country, there's a place to lay your head

When you go out on that road, you never quite come back
There's a river runs right through ya, it′s never on the map


When you go out on that road, you never quite come back
There′s a river runs right through ya, it's never on the map
When you go out on that road, you never quite come back
There′s a river runs right through ya, it's never on the map
When you go out on that road, you never quite come back
There′s a river runs right through ya, it's never on the map
When you go out on that road, you never quite come back
There′s a river runs right through ya, it's never on the map
When you go out on that road, you never quite come back
There's a river runs right through ya, it′s never on the map
When you go out on that road, you never quite come back
There′s a river runs right through ya, it's never on the map
