I've got a two room flat with a view of the bridge That crosses over into Arkansas It's pretty to see all lit up at night Tips are good, waitin' tables at a downtown restaurant You sound a little surprised that I might be doing all right Yeah, this is a big town, and I still get lost sometimes A lot has changed since Montgomery and when you said goodbye CHORUS: Looking back at where I was I can see how far I've come From a nobody with a broken heart to feeling like someone Now you say you want me back, boy let me tell you this It's a million miles from Montgomery to Memphis There's nobody special, I'm not in love Hasn't been anyone since you Now isn't that what you wanted to hear me say No, I've got no plans to be back in Montgomery anytime soon Sure, we'll get together if you're headed up this way You can probably make it in half a day or so But you can't just walk back in again Got a long, long way to go CHORUS
