Lane, Chris - Too Tennessee Lyrics






She’s city nights and broadway marquee signs
And I’m just one red light down passing old cafe
And her world spins fast at concrete steel in glass
And mine moves more like molasses on a winters day

So how could we love so good
And live so differently

She likes the view from the penthouse suite
She likes the sound of those city streets
At two AM when I’ve got satin pillows pulled over my head
And I like taking the long way home
Getting lost down dusty backwood roads
But I can’t blame her for not caring where they might lead
And maybe she’s too New York
And maybe I’m too Tennessee

She makes me laugh, a martini in her hand
As she’s trying to imitate my southern drawl
Lookin’ too cute in my old ball cap
But that woman is no cowgirl at all

Sometimes it makes me wonder
What she sees in me, yes she does

She likes the view from the penthouse suite
She likes the sound of those city streets
At two AM when I’ve got satin pillows pulled over my head
And I like taking the long way home
Getting lost down dusty backwood roads
But I can’t blame her for not caring where they might lead
And maybe she’s too New York
And maybe I’m too Tennessee

And maybe I shouldn’t question why
And just catch a red eye flight

Cause she likes the view from the penthouse suite
She likes the sound of those city streets
At two AM when I’ve got satin pillows pulled over my head
And I like taking the long way home
Getting lost down dusty backwood roads
But I can’t blame her for not caring where they might lead
And maybe she’s too New York
And maybe I’m too Tennessee
I guess we’ll have to wait and see baby

    Way to sell out. You were decent.

  7. j.... p....

    I miss this version of Chris lane

  8. D.... G....

    good song man

  9. k.... b....

    What happened to this guy??? Man a total flip once you got on the radio, and I must say I don't like it... you should have kept this Southern sound going. Oils have been as big as Luke or Jason!

    k.... b....

    kristy batchelor I agree all the songs he sang 5 years ago were great....and now it's all of this pop shot he sings. Which is terrible.

    k.... b....

    Idk it's like it's no even the same person. Even from looking at him he looks different.

    k.... b....

    I actually like him a lot better now. He's developed as an artist.

    k.... b....

    He still has southern sound

  10. C.... W....

    what the fuck happened to you guys. this was good music now your off trying to pull a taylor swift and go hip hop. damn shame, i had faith in yall

  11. A.... F....

    He is really good!! He should be really famous!!

  12. D.... F....

    what is the deal with all these videos and not one "thicker" woman the center of the song ?

  13. s.... b....

    this song is great.....people say I'm too Tennessee

  14. J.... O....

    Looks like Walt Windham from Party Down South!

  15. M.... P....

    Awesome song ⭐️

  16. W.... W....

    It's like he was Cole Swindell before Swindell was cool. Love this song -so catchy.

  17. L.... H....

    Anyone know what brand of hat that is?

    L.... H....

    looks like an Atlanta braves hat to be honest

  18. H.... R....

    Kinda reminds me of Cole Swindell. That's a compliment! Love this song! I've shared it on facebook.

  19. D.... H....

    These idiots from Miami in a 4.6 shit ford came up to us one night bragging about being your shitty stagehands or whatever. Get better advertising and congrats on sounding like every other new country artist out there.

  20. J.... T....

    Good song. You sound great. I went to school with Joseph Pope. He showed me how to play some stuff on the guitar. Keep up the good work.

  21. S.... B....

    where can I download his music from?

  22. K.... S....

    That's chelsea sorrell robertson. Yes.

  23. L.... B....

    The girl singing with ya'll???  Isn't she the one from Stokes Co.?  She was on American Idol???  Love it!!!

  24. L.... B....

    Forget Tennessee!  I want ya'll to write a song about Kernersville!  :)  

  25. A.... R....

    Josh. That's a Braves hat....

    A.... R....

    Ashley Rodgers b

  26. A.... H....

    What makes him a wannabe? Maybe they have similar styles. We don't say that Tim McGraw has a George Strait wannabe look.

  27. A.... H....

    New favorite band. And the twins, Chris and Cory, are hot as hellllllllllllllllll

  28. C.... S....

    From blanchard Louisiana bo

  29. D.... S....

    Anti-Whites say they're "anti-racist" but look at what they push & their aim becomes clear - White genocide.

    That is why ALL & ONLY White nations have never ending non-White immigration.

    Japan has a low birthrate; "anti-racists" don't tell it to assimilate w/ tons of non-Japanese immigrants.

    Why? It's non-White.

    Iceland has a low birthrate; "anti-racists" tell it to assimilate w/ tons of non-White immigrants.

    Why? It's White.

    Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-White.

    He is adorable, I love his scruffy face. The song is great, speaks volumes about separation of city and country life (winner.)

    @patsaxon I don't think there could have been a better fit to be honest.

  61. B.... ....

    @jaydrums101

    Sorry, maybe you should get a hearing aid.

  62. S.... A....

    @brandonch25
    If they are someones who was MIA, KIA, or a POW I will respect that.... But if he is wearing them for the"hell of it" , style, or whatever then I dislike it. I'm in the Army and I cannot stand it when soldiers wear their I.D. tags outside of their civilian clothes. Its just one of those immature things done by privates for attention early on in... Hey, look at me, Im in the military; come tell me how much you respect me for protecting my own country.. kinda gay.

  63. d.... ....

    Glad to see some fellow North Carolina artists making a name for themselves. Keep on Rockin Ya'll!

  64. r.... n....
