I would pick and we would sing
|
To the rhythm of that front porch swing
|
The moonlight held the spotlight that we shared
|
I found new notes on that old guitar
|
She believed I could be a star
|
She told me that she wanted to be fair
|
She said "Love will only hold you down
|
Boy, you're glory bound
|
We can't share a world with different dreams"
|
So I chased mine and she found hers too,
|
But someone else made hers come true
|
Now I'm a star, but every time I sing
|
|
Chorus:
|
My heart goes drifting down a dusty dixie road
|
Taking my mind, back in time
|
L.A. lights burn like hell once you know
|
You left heaven waitin' down the dixie road.
|
|
Every night I'm in a different place
|
And I'm searching every stranger's face
|
Trying to find the girl that's just not there
|
She's back there in Montgomery
|
And I'm clear across the country
|
But whenever I'm alone I go back there.
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
