Lost in the Fifties Tonight
(In the Still of the Night) I thumbed my way from LA back to Knoxville I found those bright lights aint where I belonged From a phone booth in the rain I called to tell her Ive had a change of dreams, Im comin home But tears filled my eyes when I found out she was gone CHORUS Smoky Mountain rain, it keeps on fallin I keep on callin her name Smoky mountain rain, Ill keep on searchin Cant go on hurtin this way Shes somewhere in the Smoky Mountain rain I waved a diesel down outside a cafe He said he was goin as far as Gatlinburg I climbed up in the cab all wet and cold and lonely I wiped my eyes and told him about her "To find her can you make these big wheels burn"? I cant blame her for lettin go A woman needs someone warm to hold I feel the rain runnin down my face Ill find her no matter what it takes CHORUS
