In a town

oh, Nashville Tennesse

Met a boy named James

and he rescue me

We would dream

leave 'em so and town together

Some place bigger

Some place better

Just any where but here



And it's a laugh until we cry

And is it why you said goodbye

Guess I see you some day

hope you're not to far away

Guess I see you some day

You can tell me why

Tell me why

Oh, James why you said goodbye



So more, I'd say

We we're young and wild and crazy

But I knew better

I knew you came here to save me



And it's a laugh until we cry

And is it why you said goodbye

Tell me why

Guess I see you some day

hope you're not to far away

Guess I see you some day

You can tell me why

Tell me why

Oh, James why you said goodbye



Was you leave town without

tellin' us you're givin' up, oh yeah

Now you're just an old-time memory to me



Is in a town

oh, Nashville Tennesse

Met a boy, named James

and he rescue me



Guess I see you some day

hope you're not to far away

Guess I see you some day

You can tell me why

Tell me why

Oh, James why

Tell me why

Oh, James why you said goodbye

Goodbye

Goodbye

Goodbye
