Jonathan Pierce Band - Make It In Nashville

Momma, I moved to Nashville
So I can play out on the street
And follow these big dreams

And you know I sing my heart out
But the bums downtown well they
Make more money than me

But some guy said I got what it takes
For a small price
He'll put me up on stage
And with the exposure
He said I'll be known all over

I guess I'm one song, away from
A new car, maybe a mansion
One song away from paying my bills
But right now I'm broke in Nashville

Momma it's been a few years now
And when I get a minute
I try to go down to Broadway
And play a few new songs
Hope you can see I got a wife and a kid now
Some days I'm just doin my best to hang on

Some guy said I got what it takes
For a small price, he'll record me on tape
And with the exposure
Said I'll be known all over the world

Yeah I guess I'm one song, away from
A new car, maybe a mansion
One song away from paying my bills
Yeah but ain't that the anthem of Nashville?

Momma you taught me to shine my light
C'mon and guide me and let's pierce the dark
Momma right now I'm headed downtown
And I'm gonna play this song
In every honky tonk bar, yeah yeah yeah!

Come on everybody
This is the anthem of Nashville!
Follow these dreams and let the guitars play.
