Nashville Cats lyrics

CHORUS
Nashville Cats, play clean as country water
Nashville Cats, play wild as mountain dew
Nashville Cats, been playin` since they`s babies
Nashville Cats, get work before they`re two

Well, there`s thirteen hundred and fifty two
Guitar pickers in Nashville
And they can pick more notes than the number of ants
On a Tennessee anthill
Yeah, there`s thirteen hundred and fifty two
Guitar cases in Nashville
And any one that unpacks `is guitar could play
Twice as better than I will

Yeah, I was just thirteen, you might say I was a
Musical proverbial knee-high
When I heard a couple new-sounding tunes on the tubes
And they blasted me sky-high
And the record man said every one is a Yellow Sun
Record from Nashville
And up North there ain`t nobody buys them
And I said, `But I will`

And it was
CHORUS

Well, there`s sixteen thousand eight hundred `n` twenty one
Mothers from Nashville
All their friends play music, and they ain`t uptight
If one of the kids will
Because it`s custom made for any mother`s son
To be a guitar picker in Nashville
And I sure am glad I got a chance to say a word about
The music and the mothers from Nashville

CHORUS

SPOKEN: Kick it

Instrumental to end
