A church house gin house

A school house out house

On highway number nineteen

The people keep the city clean

They call it

Nutbush oh Nutbush

Call it Nutbush city limits

Twenty-five was the speed limit

Motorcycle not allowed in it

You go to the store on Friday

You go to church on Sunday

They call it

Nutbush oh Nutbush

Call it Nutbush city limits

You go to the fields on weekdays

And have a picnic on labor day

You go to town on Saturday

But go to the church every Sunday

They call it

Nutbush oh Nutbush

Call it Nutbush city limits

No whiskey for sale

You can't cop no bail

Salt pork and molasses

Is all you get in jail

That Nutbush

Oh Nutbush what happen on Nutbush

Nutbush city limits

Little old town in Tennessee

That's called a quiet little old community

A one horse town you have to watch

What you're putting down in old Nutbush

They call it

Nutbush oh Nutbush
