Milsap Ronnie - Lost in the Fifties Tonight Lyrics
(In the Still of the Night)
I thumbed my way from LA back to Knoxville
I found those bright lights aint where I belonged
From a phone booth in the rain I called to tell her
Ive had a change of dreams, Im comin home
But tears filled my eyes when I found out she was gone
CHORUS
Smoky Mountain rain, it keeps on fallin
I keep on callin her name
Smoky mountain rain, Ill keep on searchin
Cant go on hurtin this way
Shes somewhere in the Smoky Mountain rain
I waved a diesel down outside a cafe
He said he was goin as far as Gatlinburg
I climbed up in the cab all wet and cold and lonely
I wiped my eyes and told him about her
"To find her can you make these big wheels burn"?
I cant blame her for lettin go
A woman needs someone warm to hold
I feel the rain runnin down my face
Ill find her no matter what it takes
