Well, Yeah I'm broke

This town's got me beat

I can't make rent

I can't afford to eat

Yes I need,

I need to write a Nashville Song

Now Nashville folks first let me apologize,

I don't mean to offend, but surely you realize

what they’re doing, and what they’ve done to the country song

You've had old Johnny Cash, even had Steve Earle

you got the best bluegrass pickers in the world

but it’s the other stuff you can't spin enough

on the radio, oh no…

So yeah, I'm gonna write me a Nashville song

I’m gonna keep my legacy to 3 minutes long

I’m gonna get rich off of my Nashville song

I’ll write a sing-along, I’ll have the same sound

I’ll write a catchy chorus, run her into the ground

by repeating that chorus 5 times in my 3-minute song

Now here’s all you need

It’s every tool of the trade

You just need 3 chords about 5 clichés

You’re on your way, to ole Cashville, USA

Well my song was a hit, I went on the road

I met pretty girls

Lip synced at Award Shows

I'm a one hit wonder on repeat with my Nashville song

Yeah, I'm gonna write me a Nashville song

I’m gonna keep my legacy to 3 minutes long

I’m gonna get rich off of my Nashville song

Well I’ll write a sing-along, I’ll can have the same sound

I’ll could write a catchy chorus, run it into the ground

by repeating that chorus, by repeating that chorus

Well, now I live in Oak Hill, I got me a honey

We go for daily walks to get my mailbox money

Life has sure been sunny ever since I wrote my Nashville song.
