karly driftwood - stripped my way to nashville lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
it’s sad to say
the dreams you chase
will cost you more than you could pay
the less you got
the longer your shot
you ask me why i didn’t get a real a job
but i went to college
i did what society told me i should do
but it costs to pay a band
and it costs to rent a van
but singing these songs are worth it all
they’re worth it all

[chorus]
i stripped my way
to music city, usa
no shame in my game
i can say my dues are paid
’cause gas ain’t cheap, rent is steep
it ain’t free to chase the dream
my daddy didn’t pay
so i did what it takes
and i stripped my way
to nashville, to nashville

[verse 2]
well people tried to save me
but i just saved their cash
there’s creeps in every industry
only the naive will fall for their tricks
but i locked my sh-t up with a key
’cause you can never trust a dope fiend
i never was a fan of a cloudy day
but i know how to make it rain

[chorus]
i stripped my way
to music city, usa
no shame in my game
i can say my dues are paid
’cause gas ain’t cheap and rent is steep
it ain’t free to chase the dream
my daddy didn’t pay
so i did what it takes
and i stripped my way
to nashville, to nashville
to nashville, to nashville

[bridge]
your boy threw a lot of money
i only had to tease
but think before you judge
you’d do more for a drink
now i’m 40 west-bound
already on my way
i said “hi, i’m new to town”
turns out it’s all the same
so work your brain, know your change
the rich man decides your fate
a black card, a new guitar
you wanna be a country star?

[chorus 2]
i stripped my way
to music city, usa
no shame in my game
i can say my dues are paid
tennessee, grand ole opry
is this what it takes for you to hear me?
my daddy didn’t pay
so i did what it takes
and i stripped my way
to nashville, to nashville
to nashville, to nashville

[outro]
so work your brain, know your change
the rich man decides oour fate
a black card, a new guitar
you wanna be a country star?
