Pour out your heart in 3 : 20
The one you didn't write for the money
You turn it in nobody's listening
Got a cut so the check's coming
If it ain't a single it don't mean nothing
Every girl with a dream wants to be your friend
One day you're the king the next you're not
Handshakes and whiskey shots
And throwing up in parking lots all by yourself
But I ain't never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving Nashville
You're getting calls from old friends
Heard your song wanna write again
You're coming up with brand new ways to say no
Then you're six months without a hold
Every other day you're getting canceled
Calling up old friends that's just the way it goes
One day you're the king the next you're not
Handshakes and whiskey shots
And throwing up in parking lots all gone to hell
I ain't never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving Nashville
Oh and your friends are friends with country stars
Buying homes and here you are
You're two months from living in your car
But you ain't never leaving Nashville
Aw you ain't never leaving Nashville
You ain't never leaving Nashville
You ain't never leaving Nashville
Oh one day you're the king the next you're not
Handshakes and whiskey shots
To picking up the pieces you lost of yourself
I ain't never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving Nashville
