| Standing on the corner with a nickel or a dime
|
| There used to be a railcar to take you down the line
|
| Too much beer and whiskey to ever be employed
|
| When I got to Nashville there was too much soldier’s joy
|
| Wasted on the wayside, wasted on the way
|
| If I ain’t gone tomorrow you know I’ve gone today
|
| Back baby, back in time
|
| I wanna go back when you were mine
|
| Back baby, back in time
|
| I wanna go back when you were mine
|
| Black highway, all night drive
|
| Watching the tires fall away to the side
|
| Clear channel, way down low
|
| And it’s coming in loud, my mind let go
|
| Peaches in the summertime, apples in the fall
|
| If I can’t have you all the time I don’t want none at all
|
| No, I wish I was in Frisco in a brand new pair of shoes
|
| But here I sit in Nashville with Norman’s Nashville Blues
|
| Come all you good time rounders listening to my sound
|
| Drink a round to Nashville before they tear it down
|
| Go back baby, back in time
|
| I wanna go back when you were mine
|
| Back baby, back in time
|
| I wanna go back when you were mine
|
| Hard weather, driving slow
|
| The buggies and the hats are in town for the show
|
| Oh darling, the songs they play are all I got left of the love we made
|
| Back baby, back in time
|
| I wanna go back when you were mine
|
| Back baby, back in time
|
| I wanna go back when you were mine |
