(Lee Fykes)
I'm a gonna get on that ol' turnpike and I'm gonna ride
I'm a gonna leave this town till you decide
Which one you want the most them Opry stars or me
Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee.
Milwaukee is where we were before we came here
Workin' in a Bluerry makin' the finest steer
You came to me on a payday night said let's go to Tennessee
So we came down to Nashville to the Grand Ole Opry.
We were watchin' TV Porter Wagoner singin' loud
I said that's the man for me I love him there's no doubt
I'm leavin' now to see if I can find out where he's at
Never can get him I'm settled for that bluegrass Lester Flatt.
Oh I'm a gonna get on that ol' turnpike and I'm gonna ride
I'm a gonna leave this town till you decide
Which one you want the most me or Wilma Lee
Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee.
I'm a goin' now and trade my ol' Ford for a nose
Honey I might get all drunk up and trade it for a rose
There's a one thing I know for sure I'll always be blue
There ain't no way to get drunk enough to stop lovin' you.
So I'm a gonna get on that ol' turnpike and I'm gonna ride
I'm a gonna leave this town till you decide
Which one you want the most me or Jerry Reed
Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee.
Oh, Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee...
I'm a gonna get on that ol' turnpike and I'm gonna ride
I'm a gonna leave this town till you decide
Which one you want the most them Opry stars or me
Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee.
Milwaukee is where we were before we came here
Workin' in a Bluerry makin' the finest steer
You came to me on a payday night said let's go to Tennessee
So we came down to Nashville to the Grand Ole Opry.

I said that's the man for me I love him there's no doubt
I'm leavin' now to see if I can find out where he's at
Never can get him I'm settled for that bluegrass Lester Flatt.
Oh I'm a gonna get on that ol' turnpike and I'm gonna ride
I'm a gonna leave this town till you decide

Oh, Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee...
