[00:14.10] It was July hot 'cross Georgia on my way to Myrtle Beach
[00:20.79] I just got my diploma so I set out in search of me
[00:28.29] The honeymoon was over, and Alabama was far away
[00:34.28] From being little more than just a southern state.
[00:40.97] I got a gig down at the Bowery
[00:47.60] I played for tip and watered drinks
[00:54.30] Just a novice in a business
[01:00.30] That's seldom what it seems.
[01:07.61] And where are you goin' Tar Top
[01:13.61] Where's J. C. And The Chosen Few
[01:17.92] I saw the Flash without T. Gentry
[01:27.17] And B. V. left for Malibu.
[01:37.17] I was July hot and thirty, some years down the line
[01:43.61] When the Boys touched the nation, unaware at the time
[01:50.42] I got to go to Texas, California, New York too
[01:57.23] A farm boy who is thankful to be standin' in his shoes.
[02:05.48] But in the Bowery hangs the mem'ries
[02:10.44] Of dreams that still come true
[02:15.31] Every time I see the spotlight
[02:19.06] I'm one of the chosen few.
[02:24.56] And where are you going Tar Top
[02:31.94] Where's J. C. and the Chosen Few
[02:36.31] There's no Flash without T. Gentry
[02:45.50] And B. V. where are you?
[02:52.68] Where are you goin' Tar Top
[02:58.18] Which direction will you take
[03:04.56] What's this contrabanded clamor
[03:11.12] About the music that you make?
[03:17.68] And where are you goin' Tar Top
[03:23.75] Is it country enough
[03:30.06] Is it contemporary glamour
[03:36.99] No it's us, just us.
[03:49.93] Uh huh...
