I left Louisiana for a fifty thousand watt antenna On a sinner's prayer, three chords, and the truth All them states got your name Greyhound bus and a walk of fame It's a hard lesson in what distance can do If God made the two cities closer I'd be right beside you But then where would the Grand Canyon be I'll meet you in Nashville, California Or L.A. Tennessee Dreamers dreams are never done Gypsies songs never sung Spit out the bones, say to hell with all the rest Souls like ours are always lookin' for A way into love, a way out the door Just keep that compass pointed еast and west No place this cowboy heart won't go Star lined streets or old back roads Broadway bars or the land of silver screens So I'll meet you in Nashville, California Or L.A. Tennessee I've never been a patient man I've tried like hell to make amends Two thousand miles and beautiful plans Tell these western stars to keep watchin' over The city of angels, I'm comin' for ya The only way I know 'til I grow wings I'll get in this old pickup truck And I'll drive west 'til the sun comes up 'Cause I love you and the way you love your dreams Just know I'd move these mountains for you Every grain of desert sand And if you ever wanna settle down with me We'll call it Nashville, California Or L.A. Tennessee Call it Nashville, California Or L.A. Tennessee Mmm, where the dreamers go And the stars hang low Oh, where the dreamers go And the stars hang low Mmm
