jamey johnson – between jennings and jones lyrics
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 ol’ 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
was somewhere between jennings and jones
well, some record executives found me one night
i was singing half-lit, they said it sounded just right, right
put my name on an alb-m 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 ol’ boys just like me
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
was 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
