Nashville
I saw a picture on a postcard when I was 10 years old And them bright lights seemed to call me and I knew someday I’d go Yeah I had myself some big plans; I swore I’d be a star So I headed out at 18, just a suitcase and a car. Now I watch the snow outside my window, man it sure is coming down I sure hate this kind of weather and I hate this kind of town That old guitar in the corner, I should’ve never learned to play ‘Cause the songs that we’ve been writin’, just ain’t sellin’ here these days. (Chorus) Well, I’ve seen good times, come and go And I’ve heard some big lies down on Music Row It’s a town full of dreams that have been killed Down in Nashville. Met a homeless man on Broadway, he said he used to be like me Said he left his wife and family, to run out and chase a dream Well he made a little money, but for the price of his own soul Then they spit him out and dropped him, before he got too old. (Repeat Chorus) This city’s nothing special, just a lot of lights and smoke They use to hide the pressures and the hearts that have been broke This town can tear your life up and make a wreck of any plans Letras de cancionesSo I’m packin’ up what’s left here and goin’ back to Alabam’. Well, I’ve seen good times come and go And I’ve heard some big lies down on Music Row It’s a town full of dreams that have been killed Where the songs you write and sing are all that’s real Down in Nashville.
