I`ve been living on the wrong side of Memphis
I`m really breaking away this time
A full tank of gas and a `69 Tempest
Taking me to that Nashville sign
No turning back, I`ve come too far
I`m headed down 40 with my old guitar
This ain`t Graceland that`s a fact
And I ain`t driving a pink Cadillac
I`ve been living on the wrong side of Memphis
Gonna bronze these blue suede shoes
These cowboy boots are gettin` kinda restless
And I ain`t gotta single thing to lose
I`ve had this dream from a tender age
Calling my name from the Opry stage
I can hear it sing loud and clear
200 miles and I`ll be there
I`ve been living on the wrong side of Memphis
I`m really breaking away this time
A full tank of gas and a `69 Tempest
Taking me to that Nashville sign
