127 Rose Avenue Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Somewhere in the cradle of the deep south
Magnolias sway in the breeze
To the lonesome sound of a Redbone Hound
Howlin' at the moon and the trees
There's a sad eyed boy with his guitar
Cuttin' his teeth on the blues
Wishin' on a fallin' star
At 127 Rose Avenue
The distant moan of a midnight train
Comes blowin' through the night
He dips his pen in tears and pain
And he begins to write
Bout a whippoorwill too blue to fly
And the Indian he once knew
Bout lost highways, and purple skies
At 127 Rose Avenue
[Chorus]
Caretaker said as he shook his head
"Son to you believe in Ghosts?"
For a five dollar bill you can feel the chill
That he felt long ago
[Verse 2]
So a I bought me a ticket at the front door
Guess who was there inside
I felt his presence through the whole tour
God I swear, he was alive
I saw the train, I felt the pain
I heard him moaning the blues
Twenty-nine years of memories
At 127 Rose Avenue

[Chorus]
Caretaker said as he shook his head
"Son to you believe in Ghosts?"
For a five dollar bill you can feel the chill
That he felt long ago
[Outro]
Another side eyed boy with his guitar
Cutting his teeth on the blues
Here I am wishing on a falling star
At 127 Rose Avenue
It ain't in Nashville
It's not in Montgomery
127 Rose Avenue
