Lyrics for Song: Down on Music Row
Lyrics for Album: My Tennessee Mountain Home (Bonus Track) [RCA Nash [2007]
(Dolly Parton)
Chorus:
Down on music row
Down on music row
If you want to be a star
That's where you've got to go.
I could feel a change a comin' I left my hometown a hummin'
With my ol' guitar a strummin' songs that I had wrote
I was on my way to Nashville I just couldn't hardly wait
'Til I could sing my songs to the folks on music row.
I got into Nashville early, sleepy, hungry, tired and dirty
And on the steps of RCA I ate a stale sweet roll
In the fountain at the hall of fame I washed my face and read the names
In the walkway of the stars down on music row.
Chorus:
Down on music row
Down on music row
If you want to be a star
That's where you've got to go.
I waited there 'til eight o'clock when office doors became unlocked
Then I started walkin' down the streets of music row
Just a walkin' up and down the streets tryin' to find out who to seek
To help me get on record and to hear the songs I'd wrote.
But I found the goin' rough everyone was all tied up
Either in a conference or in the studio
They said that I could leave a tape but they'd suggest I didn't wait
'Cause everyone was awful busy down on music row.
But I could feel that change a comin' and I just kept right on a hummin'
With my ol' guitar still strummin' all them songs that I'd wrote
And then Chet and Bob at RCA, well, they listened to my songs that day
And they both told me that I was on my way down on music row.
Chorus:
Down on music row
Down on music row
If you want to be a star
That's where you've got to go.
Chorus:
Down on music row
Down on music row
If you want to be a star
That's where you've got to go...
