Anywhere but Here Lyrics


Hey mister what time does the next bus leave?
I'm a party of one out of Tennessee
I won't be back for a long, long while
Give me eighty-five dollars worth of highway mileI ain't got no luggage as you can see
Just a whole lot of heavy memories
I was finally up for just a settling down
Well I found out she's been a fooling aroundAhh you can send me north, you can send me south
Just don't send me past my house
Don't ask me where I'm going 'cause I don't care
I want a ticket that'll take me anywhere but here
A ticket that'll take me anywhere but hereOh well I hear it's cold up in Saskatoon
But it couldn't be colder than our bedroom
The skies are blue down in Alabam'
But they won't be any bluer than I amAhh you can send me north, you can send me south
Just don't send me past my house
Don't ask me where I'm going 'cause I don't care
I want a ticket that'll take me anywhere but here
A ticket that'll take me anywhere but hereAhh you can send me north and you can send me south

But just don't send me past my house
Don't ask me where I'm going 'cause I don't care
I want a ticket that'll take me anywhere but here
A ticket that'll take me anywhere but here

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Samuel Paul "Sammy" Kershaw (born February 24, 1958, in Kaplan, Louisiana) is an American Country and Western music singer and songwriter.

He is a relative of Cajun music legend, Doug Kershaw.

After the death of his father when Sammy was 11, he worked a variety of jobs by day while playing roadhouses at night to support his family.

During that time, he opened shows for Ray Price, Merle Haggard and George Jones while barely into his teens. When the pressures of growing up fast took their toll in the form of a serious drug and alcohol problem, he quit his bad habits cold turkey in 1988 and took a break from music to work as a remodeling supervisor at Wal-Mart.

One of Kershaw's demo tapes made its way to Mercury Records, which released his debut album in 1991. His traditional country voice found a receptive audience in the early 1990s, with hits like "Cadillac Style," "She Don't Know She's Beautiful" and a remake of the Amazing Rhythm Aces' "Third Rate Romance."

Shortly thereafter, Kershaw and Lorrie Morgan divorced their spouses and married in 2001. They separated two years later, but quickly reconciled. Prior to their marriages, Kershaw and Morgan recorded two duets - "Maybe Not Tonight" and "He Drinks Tequila", both of which made the Top 40.

He has released over 14 albums in his career including "I Want My Money Back" on Audium Records in 2003.

Kershaw filed for protection under Chapter 13 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on February 7, 2007.
