(Kris Kristofferson)

 

I come from just the other side of nowhere to this big time lonesome town

They got a lot of ice and snow here half as cold as all the people I found

Every way I tried to go here seems to bring me down

I've seen about enough to know where I belong.



I've got a mind to see the headlight

Shinin' on that old white line between my heart and home

Sick of spending Sundays wishing they were Mondays sittin' in a park alone

So give my best to anyone who's left who ever done me any lovin' way but wrong

Tell 'em that the pride of just the other side of nowhere's going home.



Taking nothing but to show there for these dues that I've paid

But the soul I almost sold here and the body I've been given away

Fadin' from the neon night time glow here headin' for the light of day

Just the other side of nowhere's going home.

Tell 'em that the pride of just the other side of nowhere's going home.
