Always A Tourist

Lyrics

VERSE 1: You can tell from my camera that I’m not from here But I sure do like your little town It’s quaint and it ain’t like no other That I have ever found So let me take my pictures And drop some cash Into your local economy Then it’s on down the road To where who knows Another dot on the map waiting for me CHORUS: Cause I’m always a tourist I’m never at home I just can’t resist this urge to roam Always a tourist Don’t get attached to me There are too many places That I’ve yet to see VERSE 2: There once was a girl in Pokepsie Who almost made me stay But something in her smile and her wink made me think That I had best be on my way So I just paid my tab And said “Thank you ma’am” As I walked out that door And it was on down the road To where who knows Some place that I ain’t been before REPEAT CHORUS © 2004 DC Sills

Story Behind the Song: While in Natchitoches, LA saw a typical tourist walking down Front Street...black socks with sandals and a camera around his neck. I thought man, do you know how out of place you look here? From there the song was born.
