Well, I went to see my honey dew
She lived just down the way
I got stuck and my truck broke up
And I only got halfway

Sittin' here on a muddy road
Stuck here all alone
Rain won't stop, it's beatin' on the top
And I should've stayed at home

I wish I was in Nashville
A guitar on my back
Maybe someday I will ride
In the back of a big Cadillac

Must have been a half a day
Before I got back home
The road's all mud
The creek's gonna flood
And I'm still here alone

Sure feel good a getin' back
To my old shack again
I'm all soaked, my radio's broke
And the rain keeps pourin' in

I wish I was in Nashville
A guitar on my back
Maybe someday I will ride
In the back of a big Cadillac

Gonna get out my old Fender
Learn me another chord
Gonna pick and grin and play to win
Like I've done it all before

They'll put me on the Opry
The minute I hit town
I'm gonna buy me some boots
And rhinestone suits
And throw my money around

I wish I was in Nashville
A guitar on my back
Maybe someday I will ride
In the back of a big Cadillac

I wish I was in Nashville
A guitar on my back
Maybe someday I will ride
In the back of a big Cadillac

I wish I was in Nashville
A guitar on my back
Maybe someday I will ride
In the back of a big Cadillac
