Scraping Dreams Off The Sidewalk
I
We headed off to Nashville hoping for a chance to be heard
We were Sitting in the doorways and on the sidewalks and the curbs
Waiting and writing, and sleeping in our cars was the thing
hocking our Guitars so we could just get a chance to sing
singing our songs…….All we want to do is sing our songs
( Chorus )
Scraping our dreams off the sidewalk
searching for ways to be a star
Every night we dream of being on stage
With the best, to show them who we are
We walk the streets every day
and at night we take our dreams from bar to bar
we sing our songs for anyone
just hoping to someday be a star
singing our songs….all we want to do is sing our songs
II
When the audition doors open everybody wants to rush inside
scraping our dreams off the sidewalk and rushing just to get in line
everybody sings a song but only a few go on to show who they are
the rest of us keeps working for tips and hope someday to be a star
singing our songs….all we want to do is sing our songs
(INSTRUMENTAL)

Scraping our dreams off the sidewalk

Every night we dream of being on stage
With the best, to show them who we are
We walk the streets every day
and at night we take our dreams from bar to bar
we sing our songs for anyone
just hoping to someday be a star
singing our songs….all we want to do is sing our songs
