lyrics

CANNON COUNTY, 1966


Turned eighteen and I’m done with school
Got a job at the Cheese plant like you do
Got my first car Mamma co-signed for it
Cannon County, 1966

In a one horse town nowhere to go
Ride my Mustang all over these backroads
In a hard, dry county hard to get your kicks
Cannon County, 1966

Chorus:
July rolled around and the draft cards came
Seemed like a good excuse to get away
Finally get to see the world get outta these sticks
Cannon County, 1966

First week of November there’s an early snow
Wrecked my car this morning on the Murfreesboro Road
Daddy came got it till it could be fixed
Cannon Country, 1966

On a bus to Fort Campbell I’m headed North
Failed my physical in Nashville, marked F4
Back in Daddy’s truck, Four Roses we sip
Cannon County, 1966

Chorus
