Bless your hearts, thank you
Hey, sweet daddy, are you ready for me?
It's your good rockin' mama down from Tennessee
Well, I'm just out of Austin bound for San Antone
With the radio blastin' and the bird dog on
There's a speed trap up ahead south of town
But no local yokel's gonna shut me down
'Cause me and my boys got this rig unwound
And we've come a thousand miles from a Guitar Town
ย
Well, nothin' ever happened 'round my hometown
And I ain't the kind to just hang around
But I heard someone callin' my name one day
And I followed that voice down the lost highway
Well, everybody told me you can't get far
On thirty-seven dollars and a Jap guitar
Now I'm smokin' into Texas with the hammer down
And a rockin' little combo from the Guitar Town
ย
Hey, pretty baby, don't you know it ain't my fault
I love to hear the steel belts hummin' on the asphalt
Wake up in the middle of the night in a truck stop
Stumble in the restaurant wonderin' why I don't stop
Well, I gotta keep rockin' while I still can
I gotta two pack habit and a motel tan
When my boots hit the boards, it's a brand new hand
From the bed to the riser, and I make my stand
And hey, pretty baby, won't you hold me tight
We're loadin' up and rollin' out of here tonight
But one of these days, I'm gonna settle down
And I'll take you back with me to the Guitar Town
Hello, I'm Emmylou Harris, these are the Nash Ramblers
Well, welcome to the Ryman
Thank you
Alright, hope we sound as good as you do
