While the joker and me went on our way
But now I'm grown and all alone and wishing I was with you tonight
The king, he waited on my doorsteps
Maybe I was much too selfish but baby you're still on my mind
And maybe I was much too selfish but baby you're still on my mind
'Cause I can guarantee, things are sweeter in Tennessee
But I still wonder if somewhere I went wrong
I never laid all my cards out
'Cause I can guarantee, things are sweeter in Tennessee
For that man and our life, if I did not think that, oh
But there's no lack of arms around me
Why you weren't what I wanted to find
These days everything is all business
Never in one place for too long
But I sure had all the reasons
And now I'm grown and all alone and wishing I was with you tonight
And I'd wish on every star in the southern sky
And maybe I was much too selfish but baby you're still on my mind
'Cause I can guarantee, things are sweeter in Tennessee, in Tennessee
You just wanted to play
Now I'm grown and all alone and wishing I was with you tonight
