[Verse 1]
Mr. Nashville Man, won t you listen to one of my songs?
I ll get the itch, drink whiskey, and play all night long.
Well I ain t a part of your big ol money machine.
Just a small town boy, with a helpin of hopes and dreams.
Mr. Nashville Man, won t you listen to one of my songs?
I ll hit the road play anywhere, and bring my boys along.
Cause we ain t got no particular place to be.
All we want is a chance, a chance to be heard and seen.
[Chorus]
Mr. Nashville Man.
Oh, Nashville Man.
Won t you send me a plane and fly me to Tennessee.
Mr. Nashville Man.
Oh, Nashville Man.
I can make you a dollar, just wait and see.
(x2)
[Verse 2]
Mr. Nashville Man, won t you listen to one of my songs?
We got somethin good here, they like to sing along.
Seen a few things, got a whole lot more to say.
So bring me down to music row, and we ll play all day.
Mr. Nashville Man won t you listen to one of my songs?
The stuff you re puttin out here, man it s all wrong.
You turned your back, let us help you find your way.
We ll take you down to Texas, and cleanse your sins away.
[Chorus]
Mr. Nashville Man.
Oh, Nashville Man.
Won t you send me a plane and fly me to Tennessee.
Mr. Nashville Man.
Oh, Nashville Man.
You know this ain t the way it s supposed to be.
