	Story Behind the Song The lyrics came from a dream that Betty had: Soon to be divorced woman leaves her trailor and man behind and jumps into her Cadillac and drives to Nevada through Area 51 to Roswell, NM. But experiences an alien encounter/abduction in Arizona. "Memorized by the yellow lines, still I don't know why I didn't say goodbye...and I apologize." She is drawn to a certain area unbeknownst to her and has a somewhat paranormal experience. 5/10/00--Featured song of the week on "Women of MP3.com." Exclusive interview with Betty on The Surreal World of Salon Betty Station. Lyrics Arizona (live version) I woke up this morning poured myself a martini dry Don't normally smoke but I thought today I'd try Put on my bathrobe and slippers headed slowly for the bathroom the water slowly filling the tub But I changed my mind thought I'd go for a short drive Put the convertible top down and headed slowly to the outskirts of town I don't know well, I don't know why Why I didn't say goodbye and I apologize Just memorized by the yellow lines the distant haze and the heat waves seem to call my name to Arizona Left the bills unpaid on the kitchen table Cigarette burning in the ash tray the water slowly overfilling the bathtub I don't know Why I didn't say goodbye Just memorized bt the lines and the distant haze and the heat waves seem to call my name to Arizona To Arizona Lady Luck is but a whore always leaving my life when the price ain't right I don't know well, I don't know why I didn't say goodbye Just memorized by the yellow lines the distant haze and the heat waves seem to call my name to... Arizona to Arizona I'm going to Arizona... ©1994 Salon Betty ASCAP/Blue Baby Doll Publishing
