lyrics

Six different ways from Sunday
it's been seven different kinds of hell
I've been in eight different states in the last nine days
maybe Tennessee will suit me well

I'm still on paper up in Essex County
they threw the book at me when I was there
now I curse that mean old river
ain't never going back across the Delaware

I know a pretty girl down in Georgia
so I'm going down south and feeling free
gonna drive right through the night and catch the morning
cause I finally figured out where it is that I need to be

I need to be somewhere in a good song
running my fingers up and down the strings
somewhere out there singing from my heart strong
I need to be true to myself and true to the melody

just the other day it occurred to me
I might be missing her more than I thought
half the reasons she was giving, the way that I was living
should have known that I was gonna get caught

I made one bad decision on a two timing lover
I was three sheets gone to the wind
now I'm forever in a fix about a five dollar bill
got me six ways screwed up again

might run off to California
hell, I might wind up on the silver screen
man I'm just ramblin' I don't mean to bore ya
but I finally figured out where it is that I need to be

I need to be somewhere in a good song
running my fingers up and down the strings
somewhere out there singing from my heart strong
I need to be true to myself and true to the melody

maybe there might could be a slim chance
it all works out and I get away clean
ain't even gonna stick around for the last dance
cause I finally figured out where it is that I need to be

I need to be somewhere in a good song
running my fingers up and down the strings
somewhere out there singing from my heart strong
I need to be true to myself and true to the melody
