Leaving Nashville
Pour out your heart in 3:20
The one you didnt write for the money
You turn it in nobodys listening
But you got a cut so the checks coming
If it aint a single it dont mean nothing
But every girl with a dream wants to be your friend
One day youre the king and the next youre not
Its handshakes and whiskey shots boy
And throwing up in parking lots all by yourself
But I aint never leaving Nashville
I aint never leaving Nashville
Youre getting calls from old friends
They say Heard your song wanna write again
Youre coming up with brand new ways to say no
Then youre six months without a hold
Every other day youre getting canceled
Calling up old friends thats just the way it goes
One day youre the king the next youre not
Handshakes and whiskey shots boy
And throwing up in parking lots all gone to Hell
Hell I aint never leaving Nashville
I aint never leaving Nashville
Oh and your friends are friends with country stars
Yeah theyre buying homes and here you are
Youre two months from living in your car
But you aint never leaving Nashville
You aint never leaving Nashville
Oh one day youre the king and the next youre not
Its handshakes and whiskey shots boy
To picking up the pieces you lost of yourself
Well I aint never leaving Nashville
I aint never leaving Nashville
I aint never leaving Nashville
I aint never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving this town oh
One day you're the king and the next youre not
