about

Not very far along on this one ... more crunch guitars coming, nashville tuned acoustic, a couple of girls scatting backing vocals, pedal steel guitar - just a few things I'm hearing in this one. Drums need to be added as well ...
I've always wanted to go to Tennessee, hopefully this song is not as close as I'll get ...

lyrics

BACK IN TENNESSEE

The desert gets cool at night
Oh, you shiver in vain
The moon and stars light up -
You've found some friends

And you're far from where you wanna be ...
Back in Tennessee -
So far from where you wanna be
Back in Tennessee ---

You wake to a restless wind
That's calling your name
And that lonesome highway's still your friend

But you're far from where you wanna be ...

Oh, the trucks go roarin' by and sound like thunder
'Til those red taillights are all that you can see
I said those trucks go roarin' by ...
Lord, they just sound like thunder
'Til those red taillights are all that you can see, yeah

But still ... you're far from where you wanna be
Back in Tennessee -
