(G.J.)
|
You always said someday you'd go to live
|
(In Southern California)
|
And me I'd stay right here in Tennessee
|
|
You always talked about the better days
|
(In Southern California)
|
But if you'll stay in Tennessee
|
I promise there'll be better days with me
|
|
(T. W.)
|
It's not that I don't love you
|
But I hear the call
|
(From Southern California)
|
There's something I can't find in Tennessee
|
|
Silver screens and limousines
|
They wait for me in Southern California
|
|
Though you've been so good to me
|
The time has come you'll have to set me free
|
|
(G.J.)
|
Tomorrow when you leave
|
You'll take my heart
|
(To Southern California)
|
But just remember I'll be here
|
To keep your heart with me until you see
|
|
(T.W.) speaks:
|
Well, it's been five years
|
N' I guess I've cried a million tears
|
Lookin' out the window of this little room
|
Right over that flashin' neon sign that says, "Bar"
|
It's almost midnight,
|
An time to go downstairs and go to work
|
I wonder how he's doin' in, Tennessee?
|
|
(G.J.) spoken:
|
Well, here I sit by the window
|
Of this big old lonely mansion
|
Lookin' out over the Smokies
|
And on in everything I can see
|
|
Oh, I guess by now she's found
|
What she was lookin' for
|
And as I look at this old faded photograph
|
Of the girl that I still love
|
I wonder if she ever, thinks of me
|
|
(both)
|
But the weather's good
|
In Southern California.
