Crazy Town

Roll into town, step off the bus

Shake off that where you came from dust

Grab your guitar, walk down the street

Sign says Nashville, Tennessee

But I have found

It's a crazy town, full of neon dreams

Everybody plays, everybody sings

Hollywood, with a touch of twang

To be a star, you gotta bang, bang, bang

Bend those strings till the Hank comes out

Make all the drunk girls scream and shout

We love it, we hate it, we're all just tryin' to make it

In this crazy town

You pay your dues, and you play for free

And you pray for a honky tonk destiny

You cut your teeth in the smoky bars

And live off the tips from a pickle jar

Till you find a cool new sound

And you smile when the record man shoots you down

It's a crazy town, full of neon dreams

Everybody plays, everybody sings

Hollywood, with a touch of twang

To be a star, you gotta bang, bang, bang

Bend those strings till the Hank comes out

Make all the drunk girls scream and shout

We love it, we hate it, we're all just tryin' to make it

In this crazy town

One year, they repossess your truck

And the next, you make a couple million bucks

It's a crazy town, full of neon dreams

Everybody plays, everybody sings

Hollywood, with a touch of twang

To be a star, you gotta

Bend those strings till the Hank comes out

Make all the drunk girls scream and shout

We love it, we hate it, we're all just tryin' to make it

We love it, we hate it, we all came here to make it

In this crazy town

It's a crazy town
