I've been living on the wrong side of Memphis

I'm really breaking away this time

Full tank of gas and a 69 Tempest

Taking me to that Nashville sign

No turnin' 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 no pink Cadillac

I've been living on the wrong side of Memphis

Gonna bronze these blue suede shoes

These cowboy boots are getting kind of restless

They ain't got a 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

Two hundred miles and I'll be there



I've been living on the wrong side of Memphis

Gonna bronze these blue suede shoes

These cowboy boots are getting kind of restless

They ain't got a single thing to lose
