Lyrics

Greenbrier

Turning in early, turn it up, turn off your lights.
I’m in your ears, so you can hear what I sing while I write.
Found just the right place for us where all that’s left is a smile.
It all sounds so much better and bright in Greenbrier.

A little up on the slow take - time to take that ride.
Take my hand, yeah, that’s the plan - gonna get it right.
Getting out on the road ‘cause somewhere’s better than here,
but the grass ain’t greener on the other side til Greenbrier.

It stopped making sense so long ago.
Got us in a fever. Well, you oughta know.
Of course. You have the choice
to follow that bird, follow that sound down to Greenbrier.

Hey, turn around slowly, see the sun rise right behind.
Fall full sway into the hay, don’t need another needle to find.
When we left, well, we were right - we couldn’t do it but we did.
Goes to show when you loose the coat, you can’t try but win
in Greenbrier.

It stopped making sense so long ago.
Got us in a fever. Well, you oughta know.
Of course. You have the choice
to follow that bird, follow that sound down to Greenbrier.

Wanna know the God’s honest truth?
We ain’t got nothing to prove.
We don’t belong anywhere except together in Greenbrier.

Doo-do-do-do-do-do. Doo-do-do-do-do-do.
On the other side. On the other side in Greenbrier.
