Neon skyline
Crowds and stop signs
Subway rumbles and moans
Homesick feelings got me
Barefoot dreaming and it's
Takin' me back to where I'm from

chorus:
On a Tennessee road windin' down
From the hills of my hometown
Runnin' straight from,
my heart to my soul
Where every son and daughter knows
One lane comes and one lane goes
So hold my dreams 'til I come home
Tennessee road

Restless woman
Just tryin' to be someone
You know someday
I'll come back and settle down
Maybe have some children
Yeah I'll call 'em young'uns
I'll do my best to give 'em,
a place to call their own

repeat chorus

I'm gonna come back to you,
oh yeah

repeat chorus
