Cover art for Tennessee Line lyrics by Daughtry

First you need to know that Chris Daughtry used to be a salesperson or something like that. If you look on youtube at one of the idol auditions Chris' wife is pretty well in tears about how music is Chris' dream.

This could be about Daughtry's road to where he is today. " Looking the rear view " meaning where he is coming from. " Sworn off my past " Quit his job as a sales person to pursue his dream. " first to last call i've ever made " Tossing up whether it is the right decision or not " Tell me how to make right every wrong turn that I've learned " Learning from mistakes and looking for inspiration. " The Tennessee Line " is the road he has to walk to reach his dreams. " It's my heart i will follow this time " He is going for it, following his dreams, following his heart to feel complete in the end.

" Ask myself if I can turn it all around tonight, and stop living with doubt " He is sort of living with fear he will fail. Thinking that he himself can make his dreams come true and have faith in himself.
