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.
