Nashville Drinking Song

It’s my last Friday night
in the lights of the big city
When the sun comes up
I’ll be eighty miles down the road
I won’t be looking back in tears
Or feeling any self pity
I’ll be grinning like a cat knowing
I am going home

One more beer and I’m outta here

I’m trading in this concrete
Trading in these steel walls
Going back to the country
Where the skies are big and blue
The only thing around here
that could give me any pause
Is knowing when I’m leaving
I am leaving you

One more beer and I’m outta here

Goodbye sirens
Goodbye city lights
Goodbye big dreams,
Goodbye wealth and fame
Goodbye traffic jams
Goodbye modern life
Goodbye Nashville
Please forget my name.

One more beer and I’m outta here
