I left louisiana for a fifty thousand watt antenna

On a sinner's prayer, three chords, and the truth

All them states got your name

Greyhound bus and a walk of fame

It's a hard lesson in what distance can do.

If god made the two cities closer

I'd be right beside you

But then where would the grand canyon be

I'll meet you in nashville, california

Or l.a. tennessee.

Dreamers dreams are never done

Gypsies songs never sung

Spit out the bones, say to hell with all the rest

Souls like ours are always lookin' for

A way into love, a way out the door

Just keep that compass pointed east and west.

No place this cowboy heart won't go

Star lined streets or old back roads

Broadway bars or the land of silver screens

So I'll meet you in nashville, california

Or l.a. tennessee.

I've never been a patient man

I've tried like hell to make amends

Two thousand miles and beautiful plans

Tell these western stars to keep watchin' over

The city of angels, I'm comin' for ya

The only way I know 'til I grow wings.

I'll get in this old pickup truck

And I'll drive west 'til the sun comes up

'cause I love you and the way you love your dreams.

Just know I'd move these mountains for you

Every grain of desert sand

And if you ever wanna settle down with me

We'll call it nashville, california

Or l.a. tennessee

Call it nashville, california

Or l.a. tennessee.

Mmm, where the dreamers go

And the stars hang low

Oh, where the dreamers go

And the stars hang low

Mmm...
