In The Middle Lyrics


Old gray fence, tar chipped road
Martin’s creek, I'm almost home
Whitetail buck by a one lane bridge
'Round the bend, up on the ridge
There’s Thompson’s barn
Leanin' just a little
Miss Myra’s store, smell the barbecue
Make you stop for gas when you don’t need to
At least 20 miles to the nearest town
Hills and hollers all around
And that’s me, yeah, that's me
Right there in the middle
In the middle of what matters most
Father’s, Son’s and the Holy Ghost
Open hearts and unlocked doors
Way of life worth fighting for
If you wonderin’ where I’ll be
Take out a map of Tennessee

And you’ll find me
Right there in the middle, yeah
A wreck of wood stacked by the porch
Black lab pup scratching at the door
Two little boys sayin’, 'Daddy’s back'
Next thing I know it’s a wrestling match
And that’s me, yeah, man that’s me
Right there
In the middle of what matters most
Father’s, Son’s and the Holy Ghost
Open hearts and unlocked doors
Way of life worth fighting for
If you wonderin’ where I’ll be
Take out a map of Tennessee
And you’ll find me
Right there in the middle
In middle of nowhere
Nowhere I’d rather be
With the good Lord up above
And His earth beneath my feet, yeah
In the middle of what matters most
Father’s, Son’s and the Holy Ghost
Open hearts and unlocked doors
Way of life worth fighting for
If you wonderin’ where I’ll be
Take out a map of Tennessee
And you’ll find me
Right there in the middle

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Rodney Atkins, born March 28, 1969 in Knoxville, Tennessee, is an American country singer. He was an adopted child. As an infant at the Holston Methodist Home for Children in Greeneville, Tennessee, he was so sick that two couples who had taken him home returned him just a few days later. A third couple from Cumberland Gap, Tennessee, adopted him as well and, even though his ailments worsened, refused to give him up. His adoptive mother had been raised in a coal mining family near a tannery camp, and his dad survived an upbringing marked by poverty and episodes of abuse. Rodney is married and has a 4-year-old son named Elijah, who is featured in the video for Rodney's song "Watching You". While his career had a bit of a slow start, he subsequently achieved success with his first #1 hit (If You're Going Through Hell) and the fast climbing follow-up single (Watching You).

Songfacts.com reports that he lead-off single from Rodney Atkins' fourth album, titled Take A Back Road, finds the singer looking to leave the stress of the city. It was released on April 26, 2011.
