Nashville - David Houston 

In the year of fortythree mama fished feeding me 
And quickly rushes off to her job at Werthen's Bag Mill 
But at fourth and Monroe street a failing heart stopped her willing feet 
And mama gave up the ghost of life in the town of Nashville
Daddy was in the county jail, so my older sister Nell 
Took job at a tavern that some folks called the trash mill 
And tho the welfare agency offered help, She smiled at me, 
And said, "no thanks, we'll get by in this town of Nashville," 
As a baby I went to school perched up high on a tavern stool, 
Listening to the songs on the jukebox at the trash mill. 
And the hurtin' in them sad old songs settled down in a poor boy's bones 
And I vowed I'd someday sing and play in Nashville 
So my older sister Nell like a true blue Southern Belle 
Bought me a second handed guitar from the Nashville good will 
Heaven would smile and bells would ring, when I touched those shiny strings 
And I was the richest poor boy in the town of Nashville
There is thill down in my home as it's my time to go on  
And I'm sure to good Lord, know just how I feel 
Thugh the call in near star, I cann't forget about my first guitar 
And woman who help me make it dig in the town of Nashville 
So my older sister Nell like a true blue Southern Belle
Bought me a second handed guitar from the Nashville good will   
And woman who help me make it dig in the town of Nashville
