Jim Glaser The Lights Of Albuquerque Lyrics
Desert moon, lights the freeway up tonight,
Chevy van, how I wish that you could fly.
Gotta get to her and tell her I was wrong,
But I'm still such a long, long way from home,
And the road goes on, on and on, on and on.
But the Lights of Albuquerque, will soon be shining bright,
Like a diamond in the desert, like a beacon in the night.
And I wonder if she'll take me back, will she understand?
Will the Lights of Albuquerque, shine for me again?
Thinking back, to the foolish things I said.
Looking out, at the white lines up ahead.
Gonna tell her I can't make it on my own.
Oh, this empty feeling won't leave me alone.
It goes on and on, on and on, on and on
But the Lights of Albuquerque, will soon be shining bright,
Like a diamond in the desert, like a beacon in the night.
And I wonder if she'll take me back, will she understand?
Will the Lights of Albuquerque, shine for me again?

I'll be right beside you.
So will I.. ❤
HE HAD WONDERFUL VOICE AND HE WAS LOVE 😍 BY ALL AND HE WILL BE SURELY MISSED ❤❤GOD BLESS YOU JIM WE ALL LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU SO VERY MUCH
Marty Stuart has always been so cordial and accommodating with his guests over the years on his show. This episode was one of my favorites. Kudos for Marty having Jim Glaser on his show.
The Glasers beautiful harmony
That's the Great Jim Glaser... you better believe it!
Even at this age Jim still had it, RIP dearest Jim Glaser!!
He is captivating.
One of the purest voices and one of country music's finest songwriters. There'll never be another Jim Glaser.
His voice better than ever..Wonderful
Jim Glazer is fantastic
One of my favourite songs ever recorded
What a great talent.
When I was younger my grandpa my mom and I would be driving back to Albuquerque from Grants and it never failed but this song would be playing. We would be arriving back when it was dark and the lights of Albuquerque would be shining bright. Such a wonderful memory.
I found a crazy brown girl in Albuquerque... she's the love of my life.
@@8622rtec you both are lucky to have found each other.
my family (parents + me) in 1992 were driving from Phoenix back to Albuquerque after moving away for 2 years.. this song was playing..
This song by Jim Glazer is hauntingly beautiful. I keep coming back. It is mesmerizing.
It grows on you
I moved to Albuquerque in 1989, made it my home, met my wife at midnight rodeo , she taught me how to two-step, We had 2 great kids and lots of memories, Moved in 2005. Best years of my life
Should be in Hall of Fame🎶
I lived in Albuquerque in 1984 with my 16 month old son , after my husband died in a motorcycle accident. We lived there for eight years and I finally finished my bachelor’s degree - it took me 20 years to get it. I loved Albuquerque; the people, the cultures, the marvelous food and the astoundingly beautiful scenery. I heard Jim Glaser’s song on the radio and instantly fell under its spell. This was before YT, so it took years before I heard it again. Bless YT for existing to let us enjoy his wonderful song.
Moving sketch of your life there.
I hope your son and you are doing well.
Beautiful song, indeed. I think I need to see Albuquerque for myself.
Very special Singer/Songwriter. Tremendous loss when he passed. I was happy to see Marty give him his Just Due when he performed this on Marty's Show not all that long ago.
Awesome song and Marty Stuart backing him up! Wow
The obvious pride, respect that was reflected on their faces. That they knew this was a special gift been given them.
This song is hauntingly beautiful. It reminds me of gorgeous moonlit nights out on the Ladder Ranch in Sierra County, NM. The moonlight across the canyon and upon the mountains.
First time that I heard this song, I knew I had to learn it on my guitar!
Great song!
This song is inspiring me to pick up the guitar again. Haven't played in nearly 15 years.
My city , good or bad , she is mine and i love her.
I was backstage working as an intern when he played. He was such a class act. His was my favorite performance during my time there.
What a voice
He's got an incredible voice. Didn't know about him until now.
I didn't either until I was flying into Albuquerque for the Balloon Fest. The lady sitting next to me on the plane told me about an old country song about Albuquerque as we were landing. It wasn't until I got back home that I remembered to "Google" it. WOW. I have listened to his song when he was much younger singing at the Grand Ole Opry. He OWNS this beautiful song! I love how Marty and the drummer smile and shake their heads in respect for him and his gift. Rest easy Jim Glaser, you still are touching people's hearts. Amen.
An amazing voice, still strong and solid . We are so fortunate to have these videos to watch now that all the country legends are leaving us.
One of the MOST underrated voices ever! Along with Rex Allen, Jr
At 82 his voice was still so strong ..There is a version of Woman on opry reunion that just blew everyone away.Huge talent gone..Rest peacefully and thank you for the music.
I’m from Manitoba Canada. I passed through Albuquerque many times on trips to and from Mesa Arizona.
I always loved passing through Albuquerque with the mountains behind it. I miss those trips.
There will never be another Jim Glaser. Such a beautiful voice!!!❤❤❤
This voice of jims just cheers you up nomatter how down you are.thanks for all the wonderful songs and injoyment and your brothers Rip all x x x
Wow. He still has it. I love this song
I love his music I can’t believe he’s gone , and why aren’t the Glasers in the Hall of fame I can’t believe this they were wonderful ❣️❣️
It looks like this was on Marty Stuart's show in 2014.. which means he was 76 when he did this performance.. what a VOICE!
Great song for a great city
Its chills down my back, just coming over ninr mile hill, this plays and shoot, turned it up blaring.
One if his last performances
Thanks again Marty. So many great country artists preserved for today's audiences. No pitch correction, no computers, just great artists Marty brings back live again and again. What a cool thing.
Beautiful haunting voice. Much loved & missed. RIP Jim Glaser. :-( :-(
As the years went by, Jim’s Wonderful Voice just got better and Better. There will never be another Trio as Great and Talented as the Jim, Chuck and Tompall. RIP You Wonderful Glaser Brothers. You are truly missed.
folks, I am floored by this guy,.....amazing, no proper adjectives to describe how beautiful the lyrics and his delivery are,.....oh my goodness.
Fabulous voice indeed!
God, what a wonderful voice! RIP sir.
Still gives me chills listening. Such a great song.
I can’t find the online article again which stated that songs about Albuquerque are over 100 since 1706. The one I loved the most is The Lights of Albuquerque by Jim Glaser even though it almost makes me cry because the music sounds so melancholy. Last year another Albuquerque song popped up by Shawn Brooks, a Texan who changed his name again. But I like it. I moved here 7 years ago and I love those mountains, sunsets and hot air balloons. And the view at night of Albuquerque from a mountain top does resemble a brilliant diamond.
Sad day RIP Jim Glaser. Marty Stuart thank u for your show where u have legends perform along with you and your band!
I just heard of Jim’s passing today and I’m so saddened, Jim was one of the finest voices in country music and I can’t thank Marty in the superlative’s enough for having him appear on their show,
I love his voice. He sounds better now that he was older. Just beautiful
Agree! He OWNS this beautiful song. The older we get, hopefully we learn from our mistakes. You can see it in his eyes and the crescendo of his voice, that this is a very special song. Beautiful.
And that voice , born of the New Mexico desert !
So. Great to hear live version. Usually heard this golden on am station. Such great music by a man. .so deserving of a great recognition.
That amazing voice has changed very little in 30 years! Jimmy
My Hometown Of Albuquerque.. Love Jim Glaser Always... We Can Make It Shine Again! 💖🔥 RIP Love You Always.. 💞
Last time I visited with Jim he had dark curly hair and now he has turned Silver. But his voice is always Gold.
The GREAT Jim Glaser indeed. Amazing! Handsome Harry is just soaking that in. Great performance.
When you think of the long career he had from the late 50’s with all the records made and personal appearances, yet his voice was still as great as it ever was.
So happy to find these here. This man had such a beautiful voice . Decades of memories listening to him and his brothers. Jims voice was so awesome R.I.P Sir
Such a beautiful song. Such a beautiful city.
R.I.P Jim Glaser. You will always be remembered. A beautiful tune I do love :) ~ Stephan ~
An angel singing….😇❤️❤️❤️
My family is a family of travelers from local, national, and global destination for pleasure, work, and military commitments; this song is always the warm motherly embrace as we return to the 505.
This song gets to me! Beautiful memories of two-stepping in NM and Texas! His voice sounds just like the track; simply divine!
He and his brothers most underrated country artists ever. Would like to think they are making beautiful harmony somewhere together again.
What a fantastic voice
Simply Beautiful ! Rest In Peace Mr Jim Glaser.......
I am heartbroken.
I had no idea that Jim passed away this past April.
One of the greatest voices ever.
Love him forever. 💓
Wow ................ just WOW !!
Jim Glaser's voice was way past beautiful. He was so brilliant....
Always love Marty's show for showcasing legendary performers. But Jim was way beyond legendary. Easily one of the greatest voices in country music history. I thought he had the best voice of the brothers.
Thanks Jim RIP¡¡¡
Love him and this song. We miss you, Mr. Glaser. I'm sure you're still here in ABQ. And we haven't forgotten you -- not by a long shot.
Another great song
Great vocal from one way too overlooked. This song hauntingly beautiful
No one can paint a picture with a lyric like Jim
Love love this song, he is unbelievable and remarkable, what a voice.
Treasure.
Perfectly Great
One of the most beautiful voices country music.
His pitch and singing abilities kicks ass ...
He worked so hard on keeping his voice in top shape
His breathing was a huge part of his tone ..
I was lucky enough 2 see him perform in Albuquerque at The Caravan East. That was the 1st time I heard that song & fell in love with it right away. I had 2 buy the cassette right then. I went 2 play it a while back & wanted 2 transfer it 2 a CD 2 play in the car & the tape broke. I tried finding it around town without success. I still want it 4 my car.
RIP JIM💞🎶🎼
And he sang backup. Remarkable voice
Good on you Jim, a great lifetime effort in the music industry! You will be missed! Jimmy!
sure gonna miss his voice live. RIP Jim
I am from Albuquere! Best place to be!
