Well he told me I had what it takes,
And he told me all I needed was one lucky break
then he played me, like he played his guitar,
And he said, "When you get to Nashville, I'll make you a star"

Chorus:
But I never got to Nashville, he didn't make me a star
No, I never got to nashville, I'm still playing in this bar
But I'm gonna keep on trying, 'cause trying hard is what it takes
And someday I'll be big in Nashville, someday I'll get that lucky break

The jukebox plays his records he's number one
And I know that I was just one night of fun
Time goes by and Nashville seems so far away,
But I know I can make it, I'm on my way

Repeat chorus
