Chris Thile - Wayside (Back In Time) lyrics

rate me

Standing on a corner with a nickel or a dime

There used to be a railcar to take you down the line

Too much beer and whiskey to ever be employed

And when I got to Nashville it was too much soldier's joy

Wasted on the wayside, wasted on the way

If I ain't gone tomorrow you know I'm gone today

Back baby, back in time

I wanna go back when you were mine

Back baby, back in time

I wanna go back when you were mine

Black highway, all night ride

Watching the times fall away to the side

Clear channel, way down low

Is coming in loud

My mind let go

Peaches in the summertime, apples in the fall

If I can't have you all the time I don't want none at all

I wish I was in Frisco in a brand new pair of shoes

But here I sit in Nashville with Norman's Nashville Blues

Come all you good time rounders and listen to my sound

And drink a round to Nashville before they tear it down

Back baby, back in time

I wanna go back when you were mine

Back baby, back in time

I wanna go back when you were mine

Hard weather, driving slow

The buggues and the hats are in town for the show

Oh, Darling the songs they played

Are all I got left of the love we made

Back baby, back in time

I wanna go back when you were mine

Back baby, back in time

I wanna go back when you were mine
