Lyric Hillbilly Hell

(Bob McDill - Wayland Holyfield)

My friends and my mother they all like my songs
They said boy Nashville is where you belong
And I agreed the music world probably needed me
Well, Music City here I am but I don t think anybody gives a damn.

In the cold, cold heart of Tennessee
There s ten thousand dreamers just like me
With a song and a guitar and a message to tell
Come to find heaven in hillbilly hell.

Another day a watchin the Cadillacs go past
Writin songs in my head while I m a pumpin gas
Eatin beans and wearin jeans and sleepin in my car
I hope the folks back home will understand
It s gonna take a little longer than I planned.

Yeah in the cold, cold heart of Tennessee
There s ten thousand dreamers just like me
With a song and a guitar and a message to tell
Come to find heaven in hillbilly hell...
