| He watched her pack her bags
|
| she would soon be on her way
|
| following some rich kid to L. A
|
| Auburn hair was flowing
|
| right down past her knees
|
| He watched her turn her back on Tennessee.
|
| Good as gold that’s how i’ll remember you and those eyes of delta blue.
|
| Good for you turn your back on Tennessee you knew what you got to do.
|

| She called him one night crying from some bar on the low (???)
|
| At a crowded party all alone (???)

|
| drifting through the days
|
| painting blank expressions on my face.
|
| Good as gold that’s how i’ll remember you and those eyes of delta blue.
|
| Good for you turn your back on Tennessee you knew what you got to do.
|
| Heaven knows if its wrong or if it’s right she is leaving at first light.
|
| Here i stay if i wasn’t so afraid i would chase her down tonight.
|
| I’ve never been the wild kind
|
| some kind of flaw in my design
|
| I couldn’t cross the county line.
|
| Good as gold that’s how i’ll remember you and those eyes of delta blue.
|
| Good for you turn your back on Tennessee you know what you got to do.
|
| Heaven knows if its wrong or if it’s right she is leaving at first light.
