about

The seductive "Music City" myth

lyrics

HE LEARNED HOW TO PLAY GUITAR / BY COVERING JOHN PRINE
NOT THE AVERAGE HIGH SCHOOL KID / IN 1999
HE COULD SING AND PICK REAL WELL / HAD A DEMO ON CD
A NOTEBOOK FULL OF SONG IDEAS / THE WORLD ON A STRING

PAID HIS DUES IN LISTENING ROOMS / RUNNING UP THAT HILL
GOT A LOT OF FOLKY LOVE / BUT SECOND ON THE BILL
WOUND UP DOWN IN NASHVILLE / THE SONGWRITERS LAMENT
SHOWCAS AFTER SHOWCASE / THE STRIP TO MAKE THE RENT

15 YEARS OFF ALMOST / DOWN TO GIGS FOR TIPS AND COKE
AND WAGON WHEEL FOR BACHELORETTES / WHO WEREN’T IN ON THE JOKE

WHO THE HELL WOULD PLAY THIS GAME / ALWAYS THE FIRST RODEO
ON YOUR KNEES FOR WEALTH AND FAME / WHORES IN NASH VEGAS BORDELLO

NOW HE PAYS ATTENTION / TO THE TRENDS THAT MAKE THE CHARTS
AND HE CAN FAKE SINCERITY / FROM THE MIDDLE OF HIS HEART
PUTS ON A SOUTHERN ACCENT / SINGS BAD BOY DRINKIN’ SONGS
TELLS STORIES ABOUT REHAB / AND HOW HIS FIRST WIFE DONE HIM WRONG

BUT HE GREW UP IN MADONNA TOWN / SURROUNDED BY NO DOUBT
THE BYRDS AND GILDED PALACE / MADE IT TO HIS EARS SOMEHOW
DIDN’T FIT AS A KID / NO ONE UNDERSTOOD
WHY HE THOUGHT ‘HOT BURRITO NO. 1’ / WAS SO DAMN GOOD

I STILL HAVE MY NOTEBOOK / AND MY DEMOS ON CD
SONGS DELIVERED FROM MY SOUL / INTO OBSCURITY

WHO THE HELL WOULD PLAY THIS GAME / ON TO THE NEXT RODEO
ON MY KNEES FOR WEALTH AND FAME / WHORING IN NASH VEGAS BORDELLO

500 MILES FROM ANYWHERE / FROM ANYONE LIKE ME
