NASHVILLE CATS
GNashville cats, play clean as country waterNashville cats, play wild as mountain dewNashville cats, been playin' since they's babiesNashville cats, get work before they're two
G
Well, there's thirteen hundred and fifty two
D
Guitar pickers in Nashville
And they can pick more notes than the number of ants
G
On a Tennessee ant hill
Yeah, there's thirteen hundred and fifty two
C
Guitar cases in Nashville
D
And any one who unpacks 'is guitar could play
G
Twice as better than I will
G
Yeah, I was just thirteen, you might say I was a
D
Musical proverbial knee-high
When I heard a couple new-sounding tunes on the tubes
G
And they blasted me sky-high
And the record man said every one is a yellow sun
D
Record from Nashville
And up north there ain't nobody buys them
G
And I said, "But I Will" And it was…
CHORUS G
Well, there's sixteen thousand eight hundred 'n' twenty one
D
Mothers from Nashville
All their friends play music, and they ain't uptight
G
If one of the kids will
Because it's custom made for any mothers son
C
To be a guitar picker in Nashville
D
And I sure am glad I got a chance to say a word about
G
The music and the mothers from Nashville
CHORUS
