Intro:
Chorus:
I'm gonna get on that old turnpike and I'm gonna ride
I'm gonna leave this town til you decide
Which one you want the most them Opry stars or me
Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee
Milwaukee is where we were before we came here
Working in a brewery making the finest beer
You came to me on a payday night said lets go to Tennessee
So we drove to Nashville to the Grand Ole Opry
(Repeat Chorus)
Break:
We were watching TV Ernest Tubb was singing loud
I said that's the man for me I love him theres no doubt
I'm leaving you and going now to find out where hes at
If I can't get him I'll settle for that bluegrass Lester Flatt.
I'm gonna get on that old turnpike and I'm gonna ride
I'm gonna leave this town til you decide
Which one you want the most me or Jerry Lee
Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee
Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee
