《Tennessee Plates》歌词

[00:00:00] Tennessee Plates - Mark Collie

[00:00:08] I woke up in a hotel

[00:00:17] Didn't know what to do

[00:00:18] I turned the TV on

[00:00:19] Wrote a letter to you

[00:00:21] The news was talkin' 'bout

[00:00:22] A dead man upon the interstate

[00:00:24] Seems they were lookin'

[00:00:27] For a Cadillac with Tennessee plates

[00:00:32] Well since I left California

[00:00:36] Baby things have gotten worse

[00:00:38] Seems the land of opportunity

[00:00:40] For me is just a curse

[00:00:41] Tell that judge in Bakersfield

[00:00:42] My trial'll have to wait

[00:00:44] Down here they're lookin'

[00:00:48] For a Cadillac with Tennessee plates

[00:00:50] It was somewhere in Nevada

[00:00:51] It was cold outside

[00:00:53] She was shiverin' in the dark

[00:00:54] So I offered her a ride

[00:00:56] Three bank jobs later

[00:00:57] Four cars hot wired

[00:00:59] We crossed the Mississippi

[00:01:00] Like an oil slick fire

[00:01:08] Now if they'd known what we was

[00:01:10] Up to they wouldn't let us in

[00:01:12] And now we landed

[00:01:13] In Memphis like original sin

[00:01:15] Elvis Presley Boulevard

[00:01:16] To the Graceland gates

[00:01:18] See we were lookin' for a Cadillac

[00:01:22] With Tennessee plates

[00:01:35] Well there must have been a dozen

[00:01:36] Of them parked in that garage

[00:01:38] There wasn't one Lincoln

[00:01:39] And there wasn't one Dodge

[00:01:40] There wasn't one

[00:01:42] Japanese model or make

[00:01:44] Just pretty pretty Cadillacs

[00:01:48] With Tennessee plates

[00:01:49] She saw him singing once

[00:01:51] When she was seventeen

[00:01:53] And ever since that day

[00:01:54] She's been living in between

[00:01:56] I was never king of nothin'

[00:01:57] But this wild weekend

[00:01:59] Anyway he wouldn't care

[00:02:00] Hell he gave them to his friends

[00:02:02] This ain't no hotel

[00:02:09] I'm writin' you from

[00:02:10] Now it's a Tennessee

[00:02:15] Prison up at Brushy Mountain

[00:02:17] Where yours sincerely's

[00:02:21] Doin' five to eight

[00:02:23] I'm just stampin' out my

[00:02:30] Time makin' Tennessee plates
