How’d We End Up Here

Heading out of town we turned south, Lord something must be wrong
I was going up to Nashville, gonna sing them a country song
Ever since I was a young boy, I’ve been trying to get on the music stage
Sure that chapter was in my life somewhere, and it was time to turn the page

I met a woman in Atlanta, Lord she took me for a ride
Said she’d help me reach my goals and dreams, and always keep me satisfied
For a small town boy from Georgia, Music Row was an easy place to get
That’s what she said
I’ve been searching for my name in the marquee lights, but I ain’t found it yet.

I’ve been on back roads and side roads
Highways and dirt roads just the same
I’ve played the rodeos and the festivals
Even drug just a little main
From the mountain tops to the valleys
And anywhere a man might shed a tear, Oh I’ve shed some tears
But if all roads lead to Nashville
Tell me, how’d we end up here

(Lead break)

They say a dreamer must keep dreaming, if he’s ever gonna make his mark
But they don’t bother tellin’ you, about the scars and the broken heart
All I’ve ever wanted was for someone to listen to my songs
And all the way praying that someday the whole world would sing along – sing along!

I’ve been on back roads and side roads
Highways and dirt roads just the same
I played the rodeos and the festivals
Even drug just a little main
From the mountain tops to the valleys
And anywhere a man might shed a tear, Oh I’ve shed some tears
But if all roads lead to Nashville
Tell me, how’d we end up here

I’ve been on back roads and side roads
Highways and dirt roads just the same
I played the rodeos and the festivals
Even drug just a little main
From the mountain tops to the valleys
And anywhere a man might shed a tear, Oh I’ve shed some tears
But if all roads lead to Nashville
Tell me, how’d we end up here
