music city joke - mac leaphart lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i drank coffee and he smoked, tossing words around
settled on a song and then we laid it down
it’ll probably never make it off my phone

’cause it’s tough to sing a song i can’t stand behind
searching for the heart, trying to make it mine
i’m lost somewhere beyond the lines i’ve drawn

[verse 2]
well it seemed so easy, couldn’t be that hard
writing one of those songs coming from those cars
from wilmington to barstow, everybody was listening

so, i packed up a bag & kissed mama goodbye
i was gonna die guessing if i never tried
but, еvery song i get done, thеy say “son, you better try again”

[chorus]
so i’m hanging on, trying to get paid
lord, easy street seems far away
if i could, i’d bum a ride, but i can’t
i’m out on a limb, trying to get in
on this music city joke
and laugh all the way to the bank
[verse 3]
kris & willie, roger miller, & john prine
came roaring passed the davidson county line
they all left their mark on this here town

big shoes we’re trying to fill
a beaten path up a worn out hill
and n0body hands the map back down

[chorus]
i still hanging on, trying to get paid
lord, easy street seems far away
not even close enough to sneak a peek
i’m out on a limb, trying to get in
on this music city joke
feels like the last laugh is on me
