Jamey Johnson - Between Jennings and Jones lyrics

I left Montgomery on North 65 I was restless and ready to give Nashville a try I rolled into town with a sound of my own Somewhere between Jennings and Jones Well, the day job I landed felt just like a jail I couldn't seem to break out with that hammer and nails And I spent all my nights in some old honky-tonk Somewhere between Jennings and Jones Hanging out in the bars with the drunks and the stars I found a few good ole boys just like me Started burning our candles both ends and the middle a bunch of roaring outlaws at high speed And they said that the end of that road I was on somewhere between Jennings and Jones Well, some record executives found me on night I was singing half-lit, they said it sounded just right (right) They put my name on an album but they shelved all my songs Said I was somewhere between Jennings and Jones Hanging out in the bars with the drunks and the stars And a few good ole boys just like me Started burning our candles both ends and the middle a bunch of roaring outlaws at high speed And they said that the end of that road I was on somewhere between Jennings and Jones Now to find me in a record store won't take you long I'm right there between Jennings and Jones
