Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sky ain't been rainin'
And the crops ain't been growin'
It's a small-town shame, all up and down Main
Moms and Pops are closin' down
[PreChorus]
Out went the cornfield, along with the farms
They put in a concrete place to park cars
Like the big cities do
It's got this country boy singin' the blues
[Chorus]
Well, I'm miles from Memphis, but I feel like I'm walkin' on Beale
And them delta guitars cry just like my broken heart feels
Drivin' around this town is draggin' me down
This ain't the place that I knew
And it's got this country boy, country boy singin' the blues
[Verse 2]
Granddaddy told me
Everything changes
You wake up one day, all the gravel gets paved
And the old drive-in gets drove out
[PreChorus]
I still hear the train, it just ain't as loud
I guess all this hurry's been drownin' it out
Like the big cities do
And it's got this country boy singin' the blues
[Chorus]
Well, I'm miles from Memphis, but I feel like I'm walkin' on Beale
And them delta guitars cry just like my broken heart feels
Drivin' around this town is draggin' me down
This ain't the place that I knew
And it's got this country boy, country boy singin' the blues
[Bridge]
Maybe I'll take a dirt road
Turn on some "Blue Suede Shoes"
The King on my radio
Might help me change my tune
[Chorus]
Well, I'm miles from Memphis, but I feel like I'm walkin' on Beale
And them delta guitars cry just like my broken heart feels
Drivin' around this town is draggin' me down
This ain't the place that I knew
And it's got this country boy, country boy singin' the blues (Country boy singin' the blues)
[Outro]
It's got this country boy, country boy singin' the blues
