Nashville Without You

It'd be just another river town

Streets would have a different sound

There'd be no honky tonks with whiskey rounds

No dreamers chasin' dreams down



No tourists takin' in the sights

No Stetsons under Broadway lights

No pickers playin' for pocket change

No rhinestone boots on an old church stage



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



No ghost of the man in black

No long white Cadillac

No woman standin' by her man

In the place where it all began



Hey Good Lookin', hey Momma Tried

Hey Gambler, hey Country Boy Can Survive

Hey Jolene, you know it's true

That Nashville, wouldn't be Nashville, without you



Hey Georgia, hey Smokey 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



It'd be just another river town

Streets would have a different sound
