Where I Belong

Well I didn't move to Nashville Thought I could make a better life Perfect car, career, and credit score And a pretty little wife One step forward two steps backwards Is how it all plays out I've found Some folks chase their dreams But me I'm stuck here in this town My buddies used to tell me You should just give it a try I Told them it wasn't for me But I couldn't tell them why So I play here on the weekends In this little corner bar I'd love to play the Opry But I won't make it that far But I play songs to make folks happy Cause that's what it does for me May be what I was born to do But not who I was meant to be Don't care about how many people Ever hear this song Stuck here in this town and in this bar Is right where I belong I clock in from 8 to 5 Head home when I clock out A different hotel every night's Something I'm not mad about Don't drive across the country And play the same thing every night I sit on the ol' barstool And play what I think feels right Cause I play songs to make folks happy Cause that's what it does for me May be what I was born to do But not who I was meant to be Don't care about how many people Ever hear this song Stuck here in this town and in this bar Is right where I belong I sleep til' 12 on Saturday And I do what I please I may wind up here in this bar But it feels good to be free Don't have to miss my family Or miss the holidays I'm living the dream I just found a different way Cause I play songs to make folks happy Cause that's what it does for me May be what I was born to do But not who I was meant to be Don't care about how many people Ever hear this song Stuck here in this town and in this bar Finding happiness right where you are Is right where I belong Oh I'm right where I belong
