Biloxi country

(Edward McBride)

This song is about a young man rejected by his father and never given any love. His only escape was his guitar which he had to hide as his father would have sold it. This Mississippi boy aims for the stars and his goal of getting to Nashville, learning his craft in the honky-tonks, dive bars, and anywhere else that affords him the opportunity to play and sing.

Well I grew up in Biloxi Where the country meets the sea My daddy had no love for me And I'd cry myself to sleep I had to hide my guitar My papa would have sold it for a bottle of beer I'd sneak out and strum those strings And the music set me free Chorus Well, I'm a rambling man, don't you see Singing is my life, it's where I'm meant to be I play from Texas to Tennessee and everywhere in between The road is long, and the nights are cold But the music keeps me warm, and it never grows old I want to be in Nashville I know I've got to aim that far Through the honky-tonks and the dive bars I'll chase my dreams, reach for the stars And when I finally make it there I'll thank the Lord for answering my prayers And I'll sing my songs with all my heart Hoping they'll touch someone right from the start Chorus Well, I'm a rambling man, don't you see Singing is my life, it's where I'm meant to be I play from Texas to Tennessee, and everywhere in between For the road is long, and the nights are cold But the music keeps me warm, and it never grows old
