Between Jennings and Jones

I left montgomery on north 65
I was restless and ready to give nashville a try
I rolled into town with a sound of my own
Somewhere between jennings and jones

Well, the day job i landed felt just like a jail
I couldn't seem to break out with that hammer and nails
And i spent all my nights in some old honky-tonk
Somewhere between jennings and jones

Hanging out in the bars with the drunks and the stars i found a few good ole boys just like me
Started burning our candles both ends and the middle a bunch of roaring outlaws at high speed
And they said that the end of that road i was on
Somewhere between jennings and jones

Well, some record executives found me on night
I was singing half-lit, they said it sounded just right (right)
They put my name on an album but they shelved all my songs
Said i was somewhere between jennings and jones

Hanging out in the bars with the drunks and the stars
And a few good ole boys just like me
Started burning our candles both ends and the middle a bunch of roaring outlaws at high speed
And they said that the end of that road i was on
Somewhere between jennings and jones

Now to find me in a record store won't take you long
I'm right there between jennings and jones
