Carson Station - Me and Harper Lee Lyrics

They say north is a direction
And south is coming home
I've been thinking hard about it
On this late night drive alone
Swimming holes and swinging tires
Sharing secrets in the back yard
The bibles in the barber shop
Someone underlined their favorite parts
Dixie isn't what I sang
Whiskey wasn't what I drank
When I sat on the front porch
And daddy read to me
They say you can't go home again
But it's still whispering in the wind
The ghost of the melody
A Bittersweet symphony
Of love and hate together in this town
And it's me and Harper Lee
And summer coming down
A cigar box full of keepsakes
Sneaking underneath the fence
Her words and my memories
I cannot forget
There are lies and contradictions
Barbed wire and red clay roads
Lots of miles to travel
Long way to go
Dixie isn't what I sang
Whiskey wasn't what I drank
When I sat on the front porch
And daddy read to me
They say you can't go home again
But it's still whispering in the wind
The ghost of the melody
A Bittersweet symphony
Of love and hate together in this town
And it's me and Harper Lee
And summer coming down
Dixie isn't what I sang
Whiskey wasn't what I drank
When I sat on the front porch
And daddy read to me
In that restless state of mind
Somewhere between wrong and right
There's a ghost of a melody
A bittersweet symphony
Of love and hate together in this town
And it's me and Harper Lee
And summer coming down
