I Wish I Was In Nashville - Mel McDaniel

Well, I went to see my honey dew

She lived just down the way

I got stuck and my truck broke up

And I only got halfway

Sittin' here on a muddy road

Stuck here all alone

Rain won’t stop, it’s beatin' on the top

And I should’ve stayed at home

I wish I was in Nashville

A guitar on my back

Maybe someday I will ride

In the back of a big Cadillac

Must have been a half a day

Before I got back home

The road’s all mud

The creek’s gonna flood

And I’m still here alone

Sure feel good a getin' back

To my old shack again

I’m all soaked, my radio’s broke

And the rain keeps pourin' in

I wish I was in Nashville

A guitar on my back

Maybe someday I will ride

In the back of a big Cadillac

Gonna get out my old Fender

Learn me another chord

Gonna pick and grin and play to win

Like I’ve done it all before

They’ll put me on the Opry

The minute I hit town

I’m gonna buy me some boots

And rhinestone suits

And throw my money around

I wish I was in Nashville

A guitar on my back

Maybe someday I will ride

In the back of a big Cadillac

I wish I was in Nashville

A guitar on my back

Maybe someday I will ride

In the back of a big Cadillac

I wish I was in Nashville

A guitar on my back

Maybe someday I will ride

In the back of a big Cadillac
