Across The Border



Started out in a small southern town
ran away at seventeen
goin' far - gonna be a star
Didn't wanna be dirt poor
scratch my way into the top
I must believe
there's a place for me in history
leaving all my friends and family
To find a place where I can breath

Across the border
I hear music never played
Across the border
I lived yesterday

Moving up through Carolina
headin' for the northern lights
destiny it's calling me
took a ride with a broadway joe
drinking and tellin' tales
A gamblin' man
who had a plan - a one night stand
leaving all my friends and family
To find a place where I can breath

Across the border
I gotta go
I gotta go

I'm gonna find my way to easy street
no longer worried how I'll make ends meet
about a million miles or more
since I left my southern town
I've no regrets
just place your bets
No regrets
so I've left it all behind me
I've found a place where i could dream

Across the border
I hear music never played
Across the border
I left yesterday
Across the border
I hear songs I've never sung
Across the border
life has just begun 
just begun
I've gotta go
