(gary harrison/matraca berg)
I've been living on the wrong side of memphis
I'm really breaking away this time
A full tank of gas and a '69 tempest
Taking me to that nashville sign
No turning back, i've come too far
I'm headed down 40 with my old guitar
This ain't graceland that's a fact
And i ain't driving a pink cadillac
I've been living on the wrong side of memphis
Gonna bronze these blue suede shoes
These cowboy boots are gettin' kinda restless
And i ain't gotta single thing to lose
I've had this dream from a tender age
Calling my name from the opry stage
I can hear it sing loud and clear
200 miles and i'll be there
I've been living on the wrong side of memphis
I'm really breaking away this time
A full tank of gas and a '69 tempest
Taking me to that nashville sign
