Nashville Bum
Lower Broadway has a life all of its own
With its country music heartbeat blaring from her honky tonks
And broken dreams come cheap here on this Nashville street
Filled with rising stars and stories of defeat
I was standing underneath the Hard Rock sign
He said Buddy got a cigarette and can you spare a dime
Just a bum off the street it was plain to see
But for the grace of God he could be you or me
(Chorus)
He said I fought for Uncle Sam
And when I came back from Viet Nam
I left the man I used to be over there
You see a broken down old man
Not who I was or could have been
You only see another Nashville Bum
(Inst)
I smiled and I lit us both a cigarette
He began to tell his story I remember what he said
Like covers of a book dont be fooled by how I look
These were surgeon hands way back before they shook
Repeat Chorus
Thomas Ahlberg & Lonnie C. Ratliff
