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... |
