Story behind the song
Pretty self-explanatory
Lyrics
Standing on the mountain tops, can?t see the light
Nashville City is just out of site
Fixin? up the Chevy sitting in the yard
Girls from these parts
Don?t get too far.. Oh
Point the car west girl, you?ll be alright
When you leave Johnson City with stars
In your eyes
In your eyes
Waiting tables at the diner, that?s a helluva start
Bagging up groceries at the local mart
Singing karaoke in the late night bars
Make sure the men
Don?t get too far?Oh
If you want that guitar girl, you gotta pay the price
When you leave Johnson City with stars
In your eyes
In your eyes
The people they love you, ?cause you sing like an angel
But neon love don?t put no food on the table
You?re free to be the person that they let you be
Don?t let Nashville
Put you on your knees...mmhmm
In the late night bar light everybody shines
When you leave Johnson City with stars
In your eyes
In your eyes
Twelve years in Nashville have come and gone
Singing for the band playing cover songs
Making ends meet while you tend the bar
Girls from your part
Never get too far
If you want to feel the starlight you gotta pay the price
When you leave Johnson City with Stars
In your eyes
In your eyes
