They dragged the river yesterday*
Called every hospital from here to Santa Fe
Some say he finally drank too much to stay alive
But I think he's at the end of Highway 5
Didn't leave a note explainin' why
Didn't tell his wife and kids goodbye
The only thing that's missin' is his Chevy 4 Wheel-drive
And I'd bet it's at the end of Highway 5
[Chorus:]
Just south of San Diego where the concrete meets the wall
There's a place called Tijuana where a man could lose it all
Find himself inside a bottle or a new will to survive
On the edge of Mexico, at the end of Highway 5
He started work at seventeen
Like all the rest of us he bought into the dream
30 years later it still had yet to arrive
Now he's lookin' at the end of Highway 5
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Everybody's cryin' to the county sheriff
'Bout a killer on the loose
A family man doesn't just disappear
With no excuse
They've been beatin' all the bushes in the city park
Thinkin' that he's still around
They'd be better off followin'
That highway outta town
SOLO
Repeat Chorus
