Nutbush City Limits

[Verse 1]

There's a church house, gin house

Schoolhouse, outhouse

On U.S. 19

Hey, the people keep the city clean

They call it Nutbush

Ah, Nutbush

[Chorus]

Nutbush city

Nutbush city limits

[Verse 2]

Twenty-five is the speed limit

Motorcycle not allowed in it

Go to town on Saturday

Go to church every Sunday

Ah, up in

Up in

[Chorus]

Nutbush city

Nutbush city limits

[Verse 3]

No whiskey for sale

Can't find a female

Salt pork and molasses

All you gonna get if you end in jail

In

In

[Chorus]

Ah, Nutbush city

Nutbush city limits

Say it again

Oh

[Verse 4]

Work fields on a weekday

Have a picnic every Labor Day

Go in town on Friday

Be in church every Sunday

Oh, up in

Up in

[Chorus]

Nutbush city

Nutbush city limits

[Bridge]

Little old town, oh, down in Tennessee

Quiet little ol' community

A real quiet, little southern community

Nothing much ever happens in Nutbush

No, no

You can hear the corn grow

Ah, you got to watch out for the police

You driving through Nutbush

You better watch out for the police

If you're driving through Nutbush

You better watch out for the police

Eye out for the police

Keep an eye out for the police

Keep an eye out for the police

Eye out for the police

Oh hey

[Chorus]

Nutbush city limits

Nutbush city limits

Nutbush city limits

Stay alive
