In The Middle of Nowhere - Charley Pride[00:00:00]
Written by:Liz Anderson[00:00:02]
They had meant for me one last time to see my hometown again[00:00:09]
Once again go there see the places where as a child I've been[00:00:17]
As I journeyed now it was so far out it was almost in[00:00:25]
In the middle in the middle of nowhere[00:00:33]
Sadness talked with me as I walked the streets of my memory[00:00:42]
Streets that seemed somehow so much smaller now than they used to be[00:00:50]
Talked of other days when this tiny place had been home to me[00:00:58]
In the middle in the middle of nowhere[00:01:06]
People stared at me in silence as I walked around[00:01:15]
Time had passed till I was just a stranger there[00:01:23]
Folks had changed so much that no one even knew me now[00:01:31]
In the middle in the middle of nowhere[00:01:39]
I went once again to the schoolyard where I used to play[00:01:48]
Passed the church of mom and daddy where they used to pray[00:01:56]
Down the dusty road to the churchyard where they both now lay[00:02:05]
In the middle in the middle of nowhere[00:02:12]
As I placed my blue forgetmenots there on the ground[00:02:21]
One last time I knelt by mom and dad in prayer[00:02:29]
Then I said goodbye forever to that little town[00:02:37]
In the middle in the middle of nowhere[00:02:46]
