Bettysoo Next Big Thing Lyrics

She was leaving Iowa Daddy said she was wasting her time Chasing rainbows and dreams she was never gonna find He had his own plans for her life Said this road won't take you far And don't bother coming back When they don't make you a star

That Tennessee river echoes the endless blue sky Those dogwoods in spring Make you ready to leave everything behind For that music highway That leads you to the center of the state If it could speak it'd tell you How many hearts it's seen break Hearts that said I'll show that old Ryman stage What it ain't ever seen You just wait, I'm gonna be the next big thing

He was working in Beaumont Doing everything he could to fill That little bar from wall to wall Just to make a 50 dollar bill Nobody heard him when he said I'm leaving tonight for music row If I'm ever gonna be someone Those men in Nashville ought to know
That Tennessee river echoes the endless blue sky Those dogwoods in spring Make you ready to leave everything behind For that music highway That leads you to the center of the state If it could speak it'd tell you How many hearts it's seen break Hearts that said I'll show that old Ryman stage What it ain't ever seen You just wait, I'm gonna be the next big thing

Every day a line of crushed hearts leave that city And every night a new line of hopefuls come driving in

That Tennessee river echoes the endless blue sky Those dogwoods in spring Make you ready to leave everything behind For that music highway That leads you to the center of the state If it could speak it'd tell you How many hearts it's seen break Hearts that said I'll show that old Ryman stage What it ain't ever seen You just wait, I'm gonna be the next big thing
