Opening Lyrics for Gasoline Alley:
I think I know now what’s making me sad
It’s a yearnin’ for my own back yard
I realize maybe I was wrong to leave
Better swallow up my silly country pride
Going home, running home
Down to Gasoline Alley where I started from
Going home, and I’m running home
down to Gasoline Alley where I was born
