Chorus:
 CG7C
        Nashville cats, play clean as country water
 CG7C
        Nashville cats, play wild as mountain dew
 CG7C
        Nashville cats, been playin' since they's babies
 CG7C
        Nashville cats, get work before they're two
Verse 1:
 CG7
        Well, there's 1352 guitar pickers in Nashville
 G7
        And they can pick more notes than the number of ants on a
 C
             Tennessee ant hill
 F
        Yeah, there's 1352 guitar cases in Nashville
 G7C
        And anyone that unpacks his guitar can play twice as better than
I will
Verse 2:
Well, I was just thirteen, you might say I was a musical
proverbial knee-high
When I heard a couple new-soundin' tunes on the tubes and they
blasted me sky-high
And the record man said every one was a yellow Sun record from
Nashville (historical note: Sun was in Memphis)
And up North here ain't nobody buys them, and I said "but I will"
(repeat chorus)
Verse 3:
Well, there's 16,821 mothers from Nashville
All their friends play music and they ain't uptight if one of the
kids will
Because it's custom made for any mother's son to be a guitar picker
in Nashville
And I sure am glad I had the chance to say a word about the music
and the mothers in Nashville
(repeat chorus)
Coda:
(spoken:) Pick it...
