I would pick and we would sing to the rhythm of that front porchswing The moonlight holds the spotlight that we shared I found new notes on that old guitar, she believed I could be astar She told me that she wanted to be fair She said, I love you more than to hold you down, boy you're glorybound We can't share a world with different dreams So I chased mine and she found hers too, but someone else madehers come true Now I'm a star, but every time I sing My heart goes drifting down a dusty dixie road Taking my mind, back in time L.A. lights burn like hell once you know You left heaven waitin' down the dixie road. Every night I'm in a different place and I'm searching everystranger's face Trying to find the girl that's just not there She's back there in Montegomery and I'm clear across thecountry But whenever I'm alone I go back there. My heart goes drifting down a dusty dixie road Taking my mind, back in time L.A. lights burn like hell once you know You left heaven waitin' down the dixie road. (repeat chorus to fade)
