Jeff's Song Lyrics

She was a young girl
Out on the streets of
Vegas
Takin tricks at sixteen
Just to try to go to college

She had her family in
her heart
She had spirit but
a broken start.

Growin' up on the wrong side
of the tracks
had almost killed her dreams

little did she know her life would change.
She'd find a ray of hope in a driving' rain
The day she came up to me
And said
Can you help me get out of this place
And find my way to Tennessee?

CHORUS:

V2

Five years later we were livin'
outside of a trailer park
not far from the ole' opry.
I said I don't have much to offer you
but the kindness of my heart
and a place halfway to your dream
So here's the key.

I'd drive her to practices
at the high school marching band
You could tell this girl had talent
all she needed was one chance

V3

I let Mark Summers
take her on her way
teach her to play the
guitar.
I was never far behind
on the jounrey of her dreams
She was a rising star.

I'd go to every show from
500 to start watchin' them
grow
Nwow as I grow older I
know
She'll be all-right
no matter where she goes

She's singin' with Martina
Trisha
and Kenny
Now I can die in peace
She's made it from the mean streets
of Vegas and found her wayyyyy
To Tennesseee
