Lyrics
How I ever came to be
In the place where you found me
Fortune and circumstance
Had caused it to be
Road trip in a beat up truck
Cursed by some good ,some bad luck
Broke down and broke, I was stuck
In Nashville, Tennessee
How I landed up in Music Row
Must have got lost, don't really know
I saw an advert for a show
I tried it out for size
Must have done something right
Told to come back the next night
The producer signed me up on sight
To my great surprise
Chorus
I'm still here, doing fine
Everything I have is mine
I'm still living the dream
Hard as it may seem
Fate must have decreed
That I'd find my way indeed
All the way from Dundee
To Nashville, Tennessee
