Lyrics
Been riding on empty a little too long, sheeps in the meadow and the pigs in the corn
And I’m living my life like a country song with a boring melody
I done gave it all but they’re wanting more, give a call to the girl next door
Cause I’ve seen her once and I’m thinking sure we’d make great companyWe’ll hear George Jones at the Orchid lounge
Then we’ll grab a truck and we’ll cruise around
Ernest Tubb’s got the golden sound and he sells it there for cheap
In Nashville, that’s the place I’m gonna be
Up in Nashville, with them ol’ honkey tonks and melodies
A short vacation is all I really need
Up in Nashville, Tennesee.
So fill it up boys I’m headed out, north of here but it’s still the south
And the bar-b-que’s gonna melt your mouth, ain’t no tea unsweet
Well I’m headed out from the morning light, running up across the border line
Gonna make it there before neon lights bring folks out on the street
We’ll hear George Jones at the Orchid lounge
Then we’ll grab a truck and we’ll cruise around
Ernest Tubb’s got the golden sound and he sells it there for cheap
In Nashville, that’s the place I’m gonna be
Up in Nashville, with them ol’ honkey tonks and melodies
A short vacation is all I really need
Up in Nashville, Tennesee.
Up in Nashville, Nashville Tennesee.
