Testo Tennessee - Shawn Colvin
Testo della canzone Tennessee (Shawn Colvin), tratta dall'album Live
I got a cool head, I'm doing alright
I've been up here so long, I must be starving
'Cause the hot spells, summer lights
Are shining on your back roads, Tennessee
Somebody hit me hard
Right in my own backyard
Somebody put a hope lock on my heart
Running down the back roads, Tenn
Oh, you got the banjos and they play real slow
To me, to me, I never heard such rock 'n' roll
From your back roads, Tennessee, yeah
Now I know you're not to blame
But you know that you should have told me
That I would never be the same
As I'm driving down the back roads of Tennessee
Somebody held me tight
Somebody tried to fight
Somebody raced out in the night
Running down the back roads of Tenn
Oh, you kissed the soul of a rebel in a Yankee girl
And you got to me
I heard you calling around the world
From your back roads, Tennessee
Well, I saw somebody standing in a field with a crutch
Behind his rich southern daddy with the Midas touch
They said, "Be outta here by sundown" and they said, "Good luck"
You might say I was a stranger who knew just too much
Somebody took a hope lock from my heart
They threw it down the back roads, Tennessee
Oh, you feel the north wind blow
That's only me
I wanna hear some rock 'n' roll
From your back roads, Tennessee
I'm not the fast city girl, I'll never rate you
I'm not the hometown queen who wants to save you
I heard you calling to my soul
From your back roads, Tennessee, yeah, yeah
