Nashville's Gone Hollywood

I was raised on country
A steady dose of Haggard an' Jones
Conway and Loretta were always on the radio
But everything has changed since then

They say it's for the good
But I think it's a cryin' shame
Nashville's gone Hollywood

You won't need a steel guitar
In your watered-down rock 'n roll
You might even find yourself
On the cover of The Rolling Stone

You'll be lookin' mighty fine
In your designer clothes
An' you won't need the Opry
You'll be singing on Jay Leno

They'll put you in the movies
You'll have your video
And if you're young an' sexy
You'll be rolling in the dough

You'll sell a million records
So, that must mean you're good
Move on over, Ernest Tubb
Nashville's gone Hollywood

I'm still giggin' on Broadway
Makin' rounds on Music Row
Hopin', maybe someday
I'll hear my song on the radio

But they say I'm too country
I wouldn't change it if I could
'Cause I think it's a cryin' shame
Nashville's gone Hollywood.

They'll put you in the movies
You'll have your video
An' if you're young an' sexy
You'll be rolling in the dough

You'll sell a million records
Oh, that must mean you're good
Move on over, Ernest Tubb
Nashville's gone Hollywood

Yeah, move on over, Ernest Tubb

Nashville's gone Hollywood.
