Lyrics

I took time out to write to my old friend I walked across that burning bridge Mailed my letter off to Dallas But the reply came from Anchorage, Alaska She said: Hey girl, it's about time you wrote It's been over two years you know, my old friend Takes me back to the days of the foreign telegrams And the all night rock & rolling 'Chelle, we were wild then. Hey 'Chelle 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 Leroy got a better job so we moved Kevin lost a tooth, now he's starting school I got a brand new eight-month-old baby girl I sound like a housewife Hey 'Chelle, I think I'm a housewife now 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 ahh keep on rocking, girl. Yeah, keep on rocking. Hey 'Chelle you know it's kinda funny Texas always seemed so big But you know you're in the largest State in the Union When you're anchored down in Anchorage Oh Anchorage, anchored down in Anchorage Oh Anchorage
