Tennessee's Not The State I'm In

You might call it sad confusion

You might even call it off

But once you called me more than just your friend

Now there's more to what I'm thinkin'

Than the Mississippi Line

And Tennessee's not the state I'm in

You call me up at midnight

To explain your whereabouts

I should've seen your love was coming to an end

And as you call from longer distances

I began to have my doubts

Still Tennessee's not the state I'm in

No, Tennessee's not the state I'm in

Satisfied is not the way I've been

I can feel my world turning

As I watch the bottle spin

Still Tennessee's not the state I'm in

Well, I could stand out on that highway

Trying to make that Nashville scene

But I think I've stretched my luck a little thin

So I walk the streets of Memphis

But I'll have you understand

That Tennessee's not the state I'm in

No, Tennessee's not the state I'm in

And down to earth is not the place I've been

I can feel my world turning

As I watch the bottle spin

Still Tennessee's not the state I'm in

No, Tennessee's not the state I'm in
