When I was only 19,
I took the call and hit the road.
Bought myself an RV and headed south to play some shows.
Staring out that windshield,
my dreams look big to me.
I was young and fearless and people liked to hear me sing.
And oh,
oh,
what a hunger that I had deep down in my heart.
I remember rolling in,
into Tallahassee.
Oh, oh, rolling in, into Tallahassee.
I could smell the tobacco in the palm and the breeze.
Plantation homes with thieving pain and oranges on the trees.
I had times I felt discouraged.
There were days I felt so lost.
Somehow I always found
my way through that thick old muddy swamp.
And oh, oh, what a hunger that I had deep
down in my heart.
I remember rolling in,
into Tallahassee.
Oh, oh, rolling in, into Tallahassee.
I remember rolling in,
into Tallahassee.
Oh, oh, rolling in, into Tallahassee.
