Alright gang, I've wrote this smash hit Ha, ha, ha, it's not so funny Let's all sing together, it's got to be pretty, let's go Listen to my song, well, listen to my song (Tell me if you'd like it play, I'll change it if it's wrong Listen to my music, George, see if it's alright If it's not what you've had in mind, I'll write you one tonight) Well, I wrote a little song a few months ago My friends all said that thing oughta go So I packed my bags and I hit for Nashville town Well, I wanted to get me a big star to do it So I made me a list with a few names through it And I started out to see if Eddy Arnold was in town Well, I come in a home way back in the den I can tell he was glad when I walked in Cause he broken the singin', 'Make The World Go Away' He finally listen the part of my song And then with a drawl of two, two miles long He said see Ernest Tubb, ha, ha, he lives just across the way Listen to my song Well, I'd see ol' Ern, he was walking the floor Cause just as records were sellin' lower But he put me on a take and listened to every word He said, I've been singin' since I was a kid And nothin' sounds like that song did Ah, throw him out Billy Byrd Well, I quit myself, got back on my feet I saw Johnny Cash up in down the street And I asked him if he can use a hit or two He said, I made mon' on a Ring Of Fire Size Luther King, playin' on his guitar So I don't care of the doo-di-dude-di I called Bill Anderson and he was at home But he said my mama sang a song I'm sorry but I hope that you understand I saw Ralph Emery and I talked to him Along ol' Tex Ritter and WSM But they was too busy shakin' one another's hands Folly I decided that the only way A stranger in Nashville can make a little hay Is just to turn a record himself with that Nashville sound So I borrowed me some money and that's what I did Everybody tells me, I've got a hit At least it's bubblin' under about one hundred, ha, ha And follows Alabama at the bus station Listen to my song
