Description

Lyrics:

I would pick and we would sing
To the rhythm on that front porch swing
The moonlight was the spotlight that we shared
I found new notes on this old guitar
She believed I could be a star
She told me that she wanted to be fair

And she said, "I don't only hold you down
Boy, you're glory bound
We can't share a world of different dreams"
So I chased mine and she found hers too
Someone else made hers come true
Now I'm a star, but every time I sing

My heart goes drifting down a dusty dixie road
Taking my mind, back in time
L.A. lights burn like hell once you know
You left heaven waitin' down the dixie road

Every night I'm in a different place
And I'm searching every stranger's face
Trying to find the girl that's just not there
She's back there in Montgomery, and I'm clear across the country
But whenever I'm alone I go back there

My heart goes drifting down a dusty dixie road
Taking my mind, back in time
L.A. lights burn like hell once you know
You left heaven waitin' down the dixie road

My heart goes drifting down a dusty dixie road (drifting down, dixie road)
Taking my mind, back in time (takes my mind, back in time)
L.A. lights burn like hell once you know (once you know)
You left heaven waitin' down the dixie road

My heart goes drifting down a dusty dixie road
Taking my mind, back in time
L.A. lights burn like hell once you know
You left heaven waitin' down the dixie road
You left heaven waitin' down the dixie road
