lyrics

Coasting down the mountain past the runaway truck ramps
Wonderin' if they ever get used
Heading up to Bristol to record a record
Of my soul just singin' the blues
My heart stopped talkin' on the Ohio side
If you love her then let her leave
I don't gamble like my buddies do
I got no cards hidden up my sleeve
It's a wide open country
And she's the one who got away

Searching Black Mountain for a little compassion
Seems like this town goes to sleep around 10
I don't know what I am hoping to find
But it might not be a friend
It's alright to get a little drunk
Just before the show
I've been walking a thin thin line
Going where the lonely go
It's a wide open country
And she's the one who got away

Tennessee, Virginia, Carolina too
Please don't follow me
The most beautiful brown eyes I have ever seen
Gazing through my memory
God be willing, the creek don't rise
I guess Virginia is for lovers too
I got to get back to Cleveland town
I got some work that I got to do
It's a wide open country
And she's the one who got away

She's the one who got away
