Broke Down In Tennessee Lyrics

I was heading to Nashville in my car. Heard a knock and the motor couldn't go no far

Ended up at a truck stop on South 81. Blountville was the name of the town. I can't forget where it all came down. And my dreams of Nashville started slipping away

Broke down in Tennessee, late at night wondering how it's gonna be. Watching my dreams start fading away. Broke down in Tennessee, late at night wondering how it's gonna be. Broke down in Tennessee

A truck driver overheard my plea. Telling the waitress what happened to me. He said, listen now, do you think you can sing

And after hearing that first country sound, he said, get on board, I'll take you on down to that music city highway. Broke down in Tennessee, late at night wondering how I was gonna be. Watching my dreams start fading away

Broke down in Tennessee, late at night wondering how I was gonna be. Broke down in Tennessee

The truck driver that gave me a ride, radio the other truckers passing by. He said, listen guys, we got a new star on the rise. And as we kept on traveling down the road, a strange feeling came over my soul. Visions of legends on the side of the road

Hank Williams Sr. with his hood up, Patsy Cline and old Roy Acuff was all waiting for help or a ride. Broke down in Tennessee, late at night wondering how It's was gonna be. Watching my dreams start fading away

Broke down in Tennessee, late at night wondering how It's gonna be. Broke down in Tennessee

Three images came on board, with smiling faces with words to be told. Saying, listen son, we know you're carrying a load, but we all had troubles down this road

Broke down in Tennessee, late at night wondering how It's gonna be. Watching my dreams start fading away.

Broke down in Tennessee, late at night wondering how I was gonna be. Broke down in Tennessee

And as we got closer to that country town, the image started fading from me now. Saying, listen to these words we're telling you

Tennessee's been good to us. Nashville is a town we love. Following our footsteps ain't so bad at all. Cause sometimes getting to the top, you have to fall

Broke down in Tennessee, late at night wondering how it's gonna be. Watching my dreams start fading away.

Broke down in Tennessee, late at night wondering how I was gonna be. Broke down in Tennessee
