Finally Got to Nashville Lyrics

I couldn't beg or steal or borrow

I couldn't find my way alone

Bet it all on come tomorrow you'd be there

No matter where the music took me home

I finally got to Nashville, finally I made the grade

I'm thinking 'bout those dues I had to pay

I finally got to Memphis, finally got out of town

But when I looked you were nowhere to be found

I should've known you'd tire of waiting

Spent too many nights alone

But don't tell me about frustrating

I've been there

Yeah, I've been there

As I stand drenched to the bone

I finally got to Nashville, finally I made the grade

I'm thinking 'bout those plans we made

I finally got to Memphis, finally got out of town

But when I looked you were nowhere to be found

It's been a long time since I've seen you

I heard that you've been doin' fine

But I wouldn't let that come between you and I

Oh, but I try not to read between the lines

You finally got to Nashville, finally you made the grade

Do you think about those promises we made?

You finally got to Memphis, finally got out of town

But when you looked I was nowhere to be found

When you looked there was no one around
