| Fancy cars and diamond rings,
|
| I seen all kinds of shiny things,
|
| I should be feelin' like a king,
|
| But lord I don’t.
|
| Great big towns, so full of users.
|
| Make a million, still a loser.
|
| Some may bet on you to win,
|
| Most hope you won’t.
|
| Livin' wild, ain’t no mercy being free,
|
| When it brings you to your knees.
|
| Can’t keep lying.
|
| I’ve seen the road now,
|
| I know just what I need,
|
| To find my way back to Tennessee.
|
| I’m going home now,
|
| To Southern, is so sweet,
|
| And find my way back to Tennessee
|
| I was only seventeen,
|
| I lived behind my beauty queen,
|
| I turned my back on everything,
|
| And everyone.
|
| Rooms with lots of pretty faces,
|
| Still don’t fill the empty spaces,
|
| Wanderin' where Amazing Grace is,
|
| There is none, no.
|
| Now I know, there’s no comfort in this world.
|
| God I miss that hometown girl,
|
| Want to hold her.
|
| I’m on the road now,
|
| I know just what I need,
|
| To find my way back to Tennessee.
|
| I’m coming home now,
|
| To Southern, is so sweet,
|
| And find my way back to Tennessee
|
| All this time I was chasing after dreams,
|
| It was right in front of me,
|
| I was lost without her.
|
| I’m on the road now,
|
| I know just what I need,
|
| To find my way back to Tennessee.
|
| I’m coming home now,
|
| To Southern, is so sweet,
|
| And find my way back to you and me,
|
| Find my way back to Tennessee. |
