There Ain't No Arizona Lyrics

He promised her a new and better life

Out in Arizona

Underneath the blue never-ending sky

Swore that he was gonna

get things in order

He'd send for her

When he left her behind, it never crossed her mind



There is no Arizona

No painted desert

No Sedona

If there was

A grand canyon

She could fill it up with the lies he's told her

But they don't exist

Those dreams he sold her

She'll wake up and find

There is no Arizona



She got a postcard with no return address

Post marked Tombstone

It said I dont know where I'm goin next

But when I do I'll let ya know

May, June, July

She wonders why she's still waitin

She'll keep waiting cause



There is no Arizona

No painted desert

No Sedona

If there was

A grand canyon

She could fill it up with the lies he's told her

But they don't exist

Those dreams he sold her

She'll wake up and find

There is no Arizona



Each day the sun sets into the west

Her heart sinks lower in her chest

And friends keep askin when she's goin

Finally she tells them, don't you know



There is no Arizona

No painted desert

No Sedona

If there was

A grand canyon

She could fill it up with the lies he's told her

But they don't exist

Those dreams he sold her

She'll wake up and find

There is no Arizona



He promised her a new and better life

Out in Arizona
