Miles in Memories

Ernest Dale Tubb (February 9, 1914 – September 6, 1984), nicknamed the Texas Troubadour, was an American singer and songwriter and one of the pioneers of country music.

Yes I've got lots of miles but lots of memories
And I wouldn't set the miles back if I could
Cause whenever I get blue I know exactly what to do
Just retravel all those miles in memories

Well I'll admit I had some rough ones way back when
But for every mile they hold a story left untold
Back there in my book of memories
'Cause I've got lots of miles

Now as faces and places come before me
Making up my full book of memories
And I wouldn't ever dare one page to solve up there
I might want to review them all some day
Yes I've got lots of miles
