CD: Down The Road I Go
Submitted by: Chris
Down The Road I Go is the best cd out right now.
I am a big Travis Tritt fan and I know there is still more to come from him.
(verse 1)
She was born in a north-woods town twenty-one winters ago
She grew tired of the freezing cold and livin' in the blindin' snow
This girl knew she wouldn't be here long cause she had plans and dreams
and She'd seen pictures of the sunshine state in the pages of a magazine
(verse 2)
So she waited them tables and she used a smile savin any penny she can
For a one way dixie bound Amtrak ticket headed for the promised land
Her momma and daddy begged her not to go when the day she dreamed of came
But she waved good-bye sittin way up high from the window of a south bound train
(chorus)
Shes got a fire burnin' deep inside ridin' on a south bound train
And the clickety clack of that railroad track only helps to fan the flame
No more worries no more cares she left them up in Bangor Maine
Now shes startin' a brand new life Ridin' on a southbound train
(verse 3)
She said hello sun good mornin' daytona you're sure lookin' good to me
With your ocean breezes and your tall palm trees and your southern hospitality
Now shes a knockout queenie in her string bikini drivin' all the boys insane
And this all started with a small town dream and a ticket on a south bound train
(chorus)
Cause she had a fire burnin' deep inside ridin' on a southbound train
and the clickety-clack of that railroad track only helped to fan the flame
No more worries no more cares she left them up in Bangor Maine
Yeah she likes the boys with the southern drawl
Soakin' up the sunshine having a ball
She'll be the first to tell you that she owes it all
to ridin' on a southbound train
