John Prine — Just the Other Side of Nowhere

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've found Every way I try 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 headlights Shinin' on that old white line Between my heart and home Sick of spendin' Sundays Wishin' 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 them that the pride Of just the other side of nowhere's goin' home Tell them that the pride Of just the other side of nowhere's goin' home Takin' nothin' back to show here for these dues I've paid But the soul I almost sold here and the body I've been givin' away Fadin' from the neon nighttime glow here, headin' for the light of day Just the other side of nowhere, goin' home I've got a mind to see the headlights Shinin' on that old white line Between my heart and home Sick of spendin' Sundays Wishin' 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 them that the pride Of just the other side of nowhere's goin' home Tell them that the pride Of just the other side of nowhere's goin' home
