[00:00:21] Standin' on side of the highway 4 exit

[00:00:29] A lady in tie dye a bag by her side

[00:00:37] Not seeing really lookin' like anything special

[00:00:45] Saw Tennessee tags and she waved for a ride

[00:00:53] Sat right beside me as the meter hit sixty

[00:00:58] Splainin' her travels and her family background

[00:01:06] When she got through I could not help but thinkin'

[00:01:14] She's a long way from a West Nashville grand ballroom

[00:01:18] Gown

[00:01:22] She's a long way from a West Nashville grand ballroom

[00:01:26] Gown

[00:01:31] Father had money and her mother had love

[00:01:39] Channelled entirely to her dear sister dove

[00:01:47] Twenty two years in society's plan

[00:01:56] Was cancelled in the swing of her dear mother's hand

[00:02:04] Six hours later we hit cincinnati

[00:02:12] Yawnin' she woke up and then asked where we were

[00:02:21] When she found out she said I must be goin'

[00:02:28] In this close to Nashville was too close for her

[00:02:37] So I stopped by the roadside and I gave her

[00:02:40] Five dollars

[00:02:41] She took it then kissed me and gave me a

[00:02:45] Note

[00:02:50] She told me just to read it then mail it

[00:02:53] In nashville

[00:02:58] On old loose leaf paper to her mother she wrote

[00:03:06] She said mama I'm fine if you happen to wonder

[00:03:14] I don't have much money but I still get around

[00:03:23] I haven't made church in near thirty six sundays

[00:03:31] So f**k all those West Nashville grand ballroom gowns

[00:03:38] Yes she's a long way from a west nashville grand

[00:03:42] Ballroom gown
