Wish I Was In Nashville

I went to see my honeydew, she lived just down the way
I got stuck and the truck froze up and I only got half way
Sittin' here on the muddy road, stuck here all alone
The rain won't stop it's a beatin' on the top and I should have stayed at home

I wish I was in Nashville, 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 roads all mud the creeks gonna flood and I'm here all alone
Sure feels good a gettin' back to my old shack again
But I'm all soaked and the radios broke and the rain keeps pouring in.

I wish I was in Nashville, guitar on my back
Maybe someday I will ride in the back of a big Cadillac

I wish I was in Nashville, guitar on my back
Maybe someday I will ride in the back of a big Cadillac
