Earle, Steve - Tennessee Blues Lyrics
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
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
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

Earle, Steve Tennessee Blues Comments
Great song an goodbye guitar town. Nashville isn't Nashville anymore.
New York's not New York anymore either. But Steve helps.
"New York's a good town,
But it's not for mine.
Pretty women in Avalon
Want me there all the time."
He was in love and you can hear it. Listen to *Sparkle and Shine* from the same album.

Where is this one person that doesn't like this song? not cool
so true, his music pulls you through the really brutal lows
@lowbridgehit Im so sorry to hear that. Its great that you can use this song to connect with your father.
Steve Earle is a master!
@LixiPixi1 obviously this song is about Steve Earles move to New York & general dislike of the Nashville establishment & starting a new life with his newest wife. but personally i connect with this song as my dad died on the highway 5 yrs ago...:"ghosts out on the highway, angels beckoning, like a long lost friend" Music is amazing in the fact a song can have many different meanings & Steve Earle is a master at this.
@lowbridgehit Amazing lyrics eh?
i agree wish the other one was back up!
@MrKeithmadsen How can you say this? The most important thing is that someone likes it.
"stanger in my mirror, lines around my eyes, string around my finger but I dont remember why, dont remember how. Goodbye Guitar town."
it's this man's music that keeps me alive from day to day
this is bloody awful,,get the one with the mic in front back plz...
i really agree
chills for sure, makes me think of how hard it is to leave a place knowing you'll never be back again. It can be hard to move on with your life, even when your going on to something better.
It really is a superb song from a superb album!!
I LOVE this song! It's awesome...you go Steve Earl...you kick major ass:)
I love this song, it's great. Steve Earl kicks ass.
