I went to Barcelona on the midnight train
I walked the streets of Paris in the pouring rain
I flew across an island in the northern sea
And I ended up in Memphis, Tennessee

I keep my head down, I keep my eyes on you
It's a big wide world with a million shades of modern blue

Everybody 'round here moves too fast
And it feels so good but it's never gonna last
Everything I had is twice what I knew
But I don't have nothing if I don't have you

I keep down my head down, I keep my eyes on you
It's a big wide world with a million shades of modern blue

Will you still be there when I round the curve?
Will you hold my hand when I lose my nerve?
I went to Barcelona and my mind got changed
So I'm heading back to Memphis on the midnight train

I keep my head down, I keep my eyes on you
It's a big wide world

I keep my head down, I keep my eyes on you

I keep my head down, I keep my eyes on you
It's a big wide world with a million shades of modern blue

Decent tune, but truly dire lyrics 
Long Live  Radio Paradise

My rating  8 - Most Excellent 
I saw her, and her husband, when they were touring in support of this cd. She was fantastic. Didn't sing a wrong note the entire evening. So good. {#Notworthy}
Great CD.
meh 
{#Flamed}..... really enjoying this new album from Roseanne 

Yep, done all those things, but found Memphis dull, empty storefronts, Beale may be better after 10pm. Now Nashville, that's completely different.

Meanwhile, I likes me some Rosanne.


caught my ear!!
I've been waiting for her to show up on RP ever since I first heard her "The List" album some 4 years ago.  In addition to inheriting her father's musical ability, she has developed a nice blend of down-home country and folk.  A 7 plus on first listen. 
Good Track,  jumped out at me right away!
Better than new! The notes say released in 2014... 
Lovely to hear her singing something new!
hurray for new music from RC! i love this, can't wait to hear the whole album.
