Wher'm I Gonna Live?
The male narrator comes home to find his wife has thrown out all his belongings on the front lawn and asks himself where is he going to go. Cyrus admitted in a 2013 interview that the song was based on his own experience at the end of his first marriage to Cindy Smith. Cyrus said about the experience; "I played this little club in West Virginia 5 nights a week, 4 sets a night,” he says. “One night I came home on a Tuesday night, which evolved into Wednesday morning when all my stuff was sitting out in the front yard. I asked myself, ‘Where am I gonna live? Where am I gonna live when I get home, my gosh that’s a song!’ And anyway, I just started singing this song as I sat there looking at all my belongings on the road there in Ironton, Ohio." "Wher'm I Gonna Live?" debuted at number 62 on the "Billboard" Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart for the chart week of October 17, 1992, and reached a peak of number 23 on December 5, 1992, after 20 weeks on the chart.
