Nashville

You ask me kindly how it oughta be
But i'm scared I'd be lying
If I said that I could paint you a scene

So just take your Polaroid pictures
And pack your guitar
Take some gasoline, for that rusted machine
And your heart

Ooo oooh oooh
Oh lord
Just know that your mamas
Smiling in heaven
She knows where you are

Lightning in a bottle
And tales of tomorrow
You'll sing
Just know that your Momma taught you
To follow your dreams

So honey you should head down to Nashville
Cross country straight to LA
Hitch hike to Boston
If your car goes up in flames

And sing on the corners
For the lovers who wander your way
But keep your eyes on that meadow
Where your heart wants to settle and just be

But heartache will hit like a freight train
And wash like rain
Some people will act like your friend
But just know that they ain't
So keep your eyes on that meadow
Where your heart wants to settle and just be
You have so much to offer this world
I think it's time that you see
You know your mama she taught me these things

So I said
Ooooh oooh ooh
Ohhh lord
Just know that your mommas
Smiling in heaven
She knows where you are

And the lightning in a bottle
Tales of tomorrow you'll sing
Just know that your mamma taught you to follow your dreams

And I said
Oooh oooh
Oh lord
Just know that your mammas smiling in heaven
She knows where you are
