Tennessee (Bonus Track)

(album: I'm The Problem - 2023)

I'm going back
I'm going back
To Memphis, Tennessee

Momma I was just taking off show late
But I'm on the road
Is it okay if I stay with you tonight
He had too much to drink again
And he went from a gentleman
Into a demon I don't recognize
Whooooooooo, whoooooo

We got into an awful fight
My life flash before my eyes
Never seen him in a rage like this before
And I said some things you won't believe
The way I cuss, the way he screamed
Couldn't stand the sight of him anymore

Well I'm tired of these tears on my pillow
There's got to be a better life for me
I'm driving out to find my hero
I hope he's back home in Tennessee
Tennessee

I'm going back
I'm going back
To Memphis, Tennessee
Tennessee
I'm going back
I'm going back
To Memphis, Tennessee

Momma you were right again
I didn't understand back then
When you used to say you just can't raise a man
Thought my love could make home whole
Fill the void down in his soul
Now I can see that wasn't in God's plan

Well I'm tired of these tears on my pillow
There's got to be a better life for me
So I'm driving out to find my hero
I hope he's back home in Tennessee
Tennessee

I'm going back
I'm going back
To Memphis, Tennessee
Tennessee
I'm going back
I'm going back
To Memphis, Tennessee

Momma I just need some peace
So won't you say a prayer for me
Maybe I'll feel better when I'm home again

Cause I'm tired of these tears on my pillow
There's got to be a better life for me
So I'm driving out to find my hero
I hope he's back home in Tennessee
I hope he's back home in Tennessee
Yeah I hope he's back home in Tennessee

Whooooooooo, whoooooo
Whooooooooo, whoooooo
