The Honeycutters

90 Miles (the Tennessee Song)

90 Miles from Nashville, on the Memphis side
the river's filling up and the trucks are blind
They say it don't come easy, so I'm not surprised to find
you don't get much for putting in your time
Honey, you're the rock, so I play the star
but I'm nothing if nothing's what they see
so you can build me up or you can break my heart
and my father's child is all I'll ever be
Baby when the tide rolls in, I'll be leaving on that morning train
you won't even know I wrote this song for you
All across the state of Tennessee, I can hear you calling me
but my hands are tied and there's nothing I can do
They teach you not to bite
on the hand that feeds,
but when you're starving, Lord, sometimes you just don't know
If the hand is soft, and the eyes are sweet
and they say a ring means nothing on the road
