Nashville Without You

[Verse 1]

It'd be just another river town

Streets would have a different sound

There'd be no honky tonks with whiskey rounds

No dreamers chasing dreams down

[Verse 2]

No tourists taking in the sights

No stetsons under Broadway lights

No pickers playing for pocket change

No rhinestone boots on an old church stage

[Verse 3]

Hey blue eyes, cryin' in the rain

Hey fire, burnin' round the ring

Hey crazy, you know it's true

That Nashville, wouldn't be Nashville, without you

[Verse 4]

No ghost of the man in black

No long white Cadillac

No woman standing by her man

In the place where it all began

[Verse 5]

Hey good lookin', hey mama tried

Hey gambler, hey country boy can survive

Hey Jolene, you know it's true

That Nashville, wouldn't be Nashville, without you

[Verse 6]

Hey Georgia, hey smoky mountain rain

Hey Galveston, he stopped loving her today

Hey fancy, you know it's true

That Nashville, wouldn't have

Blue eyes, cryin' in the rain

Hey fire, burnin' round the ring

Hey crazy, you know it's true

That Nashville, wouldn't be Nashville, without you

[Outro]

It'd be just another river town

Streets would have a different sound
