Me and Tennessee

Well I know better than to think
That square town is missing me
When it never really knew me to begin with
Never packed my bags because you
But if you asked, I'da never moved
To a town where no one cares that kiffin's winning

I'll admit it
I still do

So I'm gonna pour one out for Mississippi
Where I found a broken heart and I brought it with me
Cause you never really can shake a memory
And doing life alone's getting kinda tricky
If I drove back home, not a soul would miss me
And the light at the end's getting hard to see
'Cause the way it is, ain't ever what it seems
But if anybody asks, i'm gonna keep that shit between
Me and tennessee

I put the living room up in smoke
And drive a quarter mile up the road
To that liquor store on 17th
Scans an Indiana fake ID
While he's standing there, asking me
If I got some friday night, place to be
But it's just me

So I'm gonna pour one out for Mississippi
Where I found a broken heart and I brought it with me
'Cause you never really can shake a memory
And doing life alone's getting kinda tricky
If I drove back home, not a soul would miss me
And the light at the end's getting hard to see
'Cause the way it is, ain't ever what it seems
But if anybody asks, I'm gonna keep that shit between
Me and tennessee
I bet those small town streets probably got you long moved on by now
'Cause me and tennessee ain't something you think about

So I'ma pour one out
I'ma pour one out
Yeah I'ma pour one out for Mississippi
Where I found a broken heart and I brought it with me
'Cause you never really can shake a memory
And doing life alone's getting kinda tricky
If I drove back home, not a soul would miss me
And the light at the end's getting hard to see
'Cause the way it is, ain't ever what it seems
But if anybody asks, I'm gonna keep that shit between
Me and tennessee
Between me and this glass of tennessee
