I took the time to write to my old friend I walked across the burning bridge I mailed my letter off to Dallas, but Her reply came from Anchorage, Alaska
She said Hey girl it's about time you wrote It's been over two years now my old friend Take me back to the days of the foreign telegrams And the all night rock 'n rollin' hey Chel We was wild then
C: Hey Chel you know it's kinda funny Texas always seems so big But you know you're in the largest state in the union When you're anchored down in Anchorage
Hey girl I think the last time I saw you Was on me and Leroy's wedding day What was the name of that love song you played I forgot how it goes, I don't recall how it goes
Anchorage, anchored down in Anchorage Anchorage, anchored down in Anchorage
Leroy got a better job so we moved Kevin lost a tooth, he's starting school I got a brand new eight month old baby girl I sound like a housewife I think I'm a housewife
Hey girl what's it like to be in New York New York City, imagine that, tell me What's it like to be a skateboard punk rocker Leroy says send a picture Leroy says hello Leroy says keep on rocking girl Yeh keep on rocking
C: Hey Chel you know it's kinda funny Texas always seems so big But you know you're in the largest state in the union When you're anchored down in Anchorage
