Lyrics
I'D RATHER BE BROKE IN NASHVILLE
(verse)
Yeah, you're right, I'm thinkin' 'bout the same old stuff
That maybe it was really stupid givin' up
My job is great, I'm on a rocket to the top
But you and music are the only loves I've got
And babe, I know I'm asking for an awful lot
But I can't rest until I give it one good shot.
(chorus)
Hey, what's the meaning of success
How many chances do we get
I just can't make that voice inside my head be still
Money can't replace regrets
And it can't fill this emptiness
Someday I'd love a pretty house here on a hill....
But right now, I'd rather be broke in Nashville
(verse)
These trophies always put a smile on my face
When I would sing the others fought for second place
But singing on the holidays for everyone
And Karaoke Tuesdays just don't get it done
I'm sure that both of us can find some decent work
Eat a few more casseroles and skip desserts.
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
Isn't that what you first loved in me?
The passion that my singing let you see.
(repeat chorus)
