Tennessee Lights

See those old Tennessee Lights
As soon as you drive right into town
It's those old Tennessee lights
That keeps me hanging around

You walk past any honky tonk and hear the same old songs
Some guy with an empty tip jar getting the words all wrong
Working man shoes, or the race is gone
These days they're a long long way, from Haggard, and Jones

This towns been home to legends, much brighter than the stars
Hollywood's got nothing on the greats who played these bars
The hopefuls are all wishing that the circles not too far
Trying to be the next big thing, so they can move our of their car

Its those old Tennessee Lights
As soon as you drive right into town
It's those old Tennessee lights
That keeps me hanging around

As the Nashville sun goes down, Tootsies comes alive
The neon lights they fire up, and brighten up the sky
You can see them from miles away, and they'll stay there in your mind
No matter where you end up travelling, they'll call you back time after time

It's those old Tennessee Lights
As soon as you drive right into town
It's those old Tennessee lights
That keeps me hanging around

See those old Tennessee Lights
As soon as you drive right into town
It's those old Tennessee lights
That keeps me hanging
That keeps me hanging
That keeps me hanging around
