Doc Walker North Dakota Boy lyrics

I say, how could this be
Left her back in Tennessee
Now, there's a thousand miles between

I'm going out of my head
But I can't take back the words I said
Just to fill her empty bed

Said you can drag me back to Nashville
But you'll drag me back to Nashville dead
She wanted nothing more in her life than to see her name in lights

So, I came along for the ride but there was just no end
To the smoky bars and unpaid rent, day job blues held by a thread
Oh, you can drag me back to Nashville
But you'll drag me back to Nashville dead

North Dakota boy in Tennessee
That singing town had got the best of me
Oh yeah, and I lost my love to the dream


Looking back I lost a part of me and so I said
You can drag me back to Nashville
But you'll drag me back to Nashville dead

I say, how could this be
North Dakota boy in Tennessee
That singing town had got the best of me
Oh yeah, and I lost my love to the dream

Looking back I lost a part of me and so I said
You can drag me back to Nashville
But you'll drag me back to Nashville dead

Oh, you can drag me back to Nashville
But you'll drag me back to Nashville dead
North Dakota boy in Tennessee
I say, how could this be
North Dakota boy in Tennessee
