Lyrics Steve Earle

Steve Earle

Tennessee Blues

Sunset in my mirror, pedal on the floor

Bound for New York City and I won't be back no more

Won't be back no more, boys won't see me around

Goodbye guitar town

Ghosts out on the highway, voices on the wind

Tellin' me that we may never pass this way again

Voices on the highway angels beckonin'

Like a long lost friend

Fare thee well I'm bound to roam

This ain't never been my home

Stranger in my mirror, lines around my eyes

String around my finger but I don't remember why

Don't remember why, boys don't remember how

Goodbye guitar town

Fare thee well I'm bound to roam

This ain't never been my home

Blue dog on my floorboard, redhead by my side

Cross the mighty Hudson river to the New York City side

Redhead by my side, boys sweetest thing I've found

Goodbye guitar town
