Tennessee Plates (LP Version)
作詞:John Hiatt, Mike Porter
I woke up in a hotel and didn't know what to do I turned the TV on, wrote a letter to you The news was talkin' 'bout a dead man upon the interstate Seems they were lookin' for a Cadillac with Tennessee plates
Well, since I left California baby, things had gotten worse Seems the land of opportunity for me is just a curse Tell that judge in Bakersfield my trial'll have to wait Down here they're lookin' for a Cadillac with Tennessee plates
It was somewhere in Nevada, it was cold outside She was shiverin' in the dark, so I offered her a ride Three bank jobs later, four cars hot wired We crossed the Mississippi like an oil slick fire

Well, there must have been a dozen of them parked in that garage There wasn't one Lincoln and there wasn't one Dodge There wasn't one Japanese model or make Just pretty, pretty Cadillacs with Tennessee plates
She saw him singing once when she was seventeen And ever since that day she's been living in between I was never king of nothin' but this wild weekend Anyway he wouldn't care, hell he gave 'em to his friends
This ain't no hotel I'm writin' you from Now it's a Tennessee prison up at Brushy Mountain Where your's sincerely's doin' five to eight Just stampin' out my time makin' Tennessee plates
