Lyrics
Ford Fairlane
Last night I found another photo
It was you in your dream machine
Looking like Johnny Cash in 60
Coolest thing this town's ever seen
But small towns aren't made for big dreams
Nashville is where you have to be
And here I am in this empty house
Where just two things remain
A broken heart and a picture of
you in that Ford Fairlane
Sometimes I think about last summer
Watching you play with your old band
Bringing the house down like the Beatles
At the Trick Pony and the Strand
But small towns aren't made for big dreams
Nashville is where you have to be
And here I am in this empty house
Where just two things remain
A broken heart and a picture of /
you in that Ford Fairlane
Bridge
Someday the world is gonna know you
And they'll all see what I could see
You'll become radio's new savior
Just as you start forgetting me
This small town wasn't made for big dreams
Nashville is where you have to be
And here I am in this empty house
Where just two things remain
A broken heart and a picture of /
you in that Ford Fairlane
A broken heart and a picture of /
you in that Ford Fairlane
Oh you in that Ford Fairlane
You in that Ford Fairlane
