maybe if Montgomery wasn’t on my way back home
65 south straight down from Nashville wouldn’t feel so long
wouldn’t ever get the urge to put your name in a country song
soon as i see city lights i know I’m getting close, no detour no back road no other way to go
So I turn up the radio, pedal down left lane and
And I light up a cigarette, anything to get me through
these ten miles of memories puling me back to you, like they always do
counting down the exits and the reasons
you don’t want me
get me through Montgomery.
maybe if i didn’t know you moved on it wouldn’t be so rough
wouldn’t have this vision of you sitting right here in my truck
can’t fix our history can’t change what it was
if i could then i would make you fall back in love
So I turn up the radio, pedal down left lane and I
light up a cigarette, anything to get me through
these ten miles of memories puling me back to you, like they always do
counting down the exits and the reasons
you don’t want me
get me through Montgomery.
So I turn up the radio, pedal down left lane, light up a cigarette, anything to get me through
these ten miles of memories puling me back to you so I
turn up the radio, pedal down left lane, and I light up a cigarette, anything to get me through

Yeah I’m counting down the seconds till that road to you is behind me
get me through Montgomery.
Aw get me through montgomery aw yeah
Maybe if Montgomery, wasn’t on my way back home....
