John Prine - Milwaukee Here I Come lyrics

I'm gonna get on that old turnpike and I'm gonna ride

I'm gonna leave this town 'til you decide

Which one you want the most them Opry stars or me

Milwaukee here I come from Nashville, Tennessee

Milwaukee is where we were before we came here

Working in a brewery making the finest beer

You came to me on a payday night said let's go to Tennessee

So we drove to Nashville to the Grand Ole Opry

I'm gonna get on that old turpike and I'm gonna ride

I'm gonna leave this town 'til you decide

Which one you want the most those Opry stars or me

Milwaukee here I come from Nashville, Tennessee

We were watching TV Ernest Tubb was singing loud

I said that's the man for me I love him, there's no doubt

I'm leaving you and going now to find out where he's at

If I can't get him I'll settle for that bluegrass Lester Flatt.

I'm gonna get on that old turnpike and I'm gonna ride

I'm gonna leave this town 'til you decide

Which one you want the most

Me or Jerry Lee

Milwaukee here I come from Nashville, Tennessee

Milwaukee here I come from Nashville, Tennessee
