Charley Pride Lyrics

In The Middle Of Nowhere Lyrics
They had meant for me one last time to see my hometown again

Once again go there see the places where as a child I've been

As I journeyed now it was so far out it was almost in

In the middle in the middle of nowhere

Sadness talked with me as I walked the streets of my memory

Streets that seemed somehow so much smaller now than they used to be

Talked of other days when this tiny place had been home to me

In the middle in the middle of nowhere

People stared at me in silence as I walked around

Time had passed till I was just a stranger there

Folks had changed so much that no one even knew me now

In the middle in the middle of nowhere

I went once again to the schoolyard where I used to play

Passed the church of mom and daddy where they used to pray

Down the dusty road to the churchyard where they both now lay

In the middle in the middle of nowhere

As I placed my blue forgetmenots there on the ground

One last time I knelt by mom and dad in prayer

Then I said goodbye forever to that little town in the middle in the middle of nowhere
