no-no boy - nashville lyrics
cane sugar magnolia sweet
mama dressed like a pinay queen
kara oki could sing anything
like some mockingbird in the morning
she’d been touring the southern land
cut her t++th in a backing band
manila born, raised in birmingham
she cried when they played on the opry
three flights from mindoro, so he could
catch dwight at that ryman show
then grimey booked him for a bas+m+nt slow night
to open up the bill
sore thumb at the honky tonks
but that kid he lived for the songs
and fiddles falling into steel guitars
he wore a tattoo tennessee
singer says to the singer
hey, it looks like we’rе sharing the bill
so, you and i, guess we’ll always havе nashville
she had played a million shows like this
but she had never heard no songs like his
he told her, “baby, i’m a dylan kid
but my favorite song is ‘maaf cintaku’”
(look it up)
he loaded out just before her set
wrapped in a cloud of cigarettes
he heard a voice that you don’t forget
she sang “meet me in the morning”
not 56th and wabasha just the
donut den over by the mall, she said
brother, sometimes i miss it all, he nodded
looking at the modded f+150s
she bought him tickets to the hall of fame
sometimes it takes a tourist to reframe
gram’s jacket up there on display
“oh, sister, you live in a goldmine”
singer says to the singer
as they stumbled up to capitol hill
you and i, we will always have nashville
he worked concessions for the sounds
kara hustled, made the music row rounds
called him soon as the deal went down
“meet me at rca b in the morning”
there, he wrote her his greatest song
they cut a record to travel on
picked up a band that could do no wrong
she taught him how to sing
that record bought ‘em both big backyards but
the years passed, the city lost its charms
the condos swallowed up the boulevards
he only stuck around for her
somewhere on the endless road
he decided to leave the show
plus 63 he changed a country code
you gotta know when a goldmine is gutted
singer said to the singer
no, i don’t think we’ll be sharing the bill
this town is a sh+ll of a sh+ll
i reckon i had my fill
oh, we had it for a good long run
but now, the bridal party’s making me ill
but you and i, remember when we had nashville
you and i, oh, once we had nashville
you and i, we will always have nashville
