about

"Tennessee” is a tenderly written country ballad telling the story about the one that got away. With its stripped-down production including some dreamy pedal steel guitar, the song takes the listener on a bittersweet whiskey-wrapped journey hitting trademark highways along the way.

lyrics

When it’s all said and done
We’ve settled all our scores and put our cards on the table
I called your bluff the minute you showed up wearing a three piece suit like you’re someone else
But you’ve got nothing to hide
It’s just you and I tonight

So take this love
Take it all the way to Tennessee
Wrap it up in whiskey
To the 105 straight down to the Georgia line
That’s where I wanna be
Take this love down to Tennessee

Years go by but time just stays the same
In your eyes it’s just like the first day when you gave me a hard time and I fought back too
Funny how the little things they always come back to you
I know we left things in the past but ain’t it crazy how these things they last

So take this love
Take it all the way to Tennessee
Wrap it up in whiskey
To the 105 straight down to the Georgia line
That’s where I wanna be
Take this love down to Tennessee

You’re the one that got away
But I’ll keep smiling when I think of those days

So take this love
Take it all the way to Tennessee
Wrap it up in whiskey
To the 105 straight down to the Georgia line
That’s where I wanna be
Take this love down to Tennessee
Take this love down to Tennessee

about

Amanda Cross New York, New York

If you take the pop appeal of Miranda Lambert and Shania Twain and mix it up with the cool edge of Lana Del Rey and smart songwriting of Brandi Carlisle, that is where we find the artistry of Amanda Cross. You’ll find yourself on a ride up the PCH with “Malibu Daydream” or through a dark alley with the Hitchcockian vibes of “Phantom”, ending up at her country pop roots with “How Did I Get Here”. ... more
