GOING DOWN TO NASHVILLE song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

going down to Nashville riding the bus
leaving all behind in a big cloud of dust
going down to Nashville with a guitar
a heart full of songs and my head in the stars
I know I can make it if I try
goodbye baby goodbye

Grand Old Opry you gotta be there
else I'm gonna play in the Public Square
maybe I can play on the Live on the Green
I'm just a one man music machine
Elvis is my hero and Willie my saint
don't say what is and what aint

going down to Nashville all full of hope
I'm looking for a yes I won't listen to nope
I got what it takes both chapter and verse
and Nashville is the center of the whole universe
gonna be a star aint gonna die
goodbye baby bye bye

Grand Old Opry you gotta be there
else I'm gonna play in the Public Square
maybe I can play on the Live on the Green
I'm just a one man music machine
Elvis is my hero and Willie my saint
don't tell me what is and what aint

going down to Nashville head in the clouds
sleep on a park bench I aint too proud
knock on every door down on Demonbruen Street
busking for nickels just so I can eat
I know I can make it I won't tell a lie
bye bye baby bye bye
