Tom T. Hall - Nashville Is A Groovy Little Town [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1:]
My plane set down in nashville at a quarter after 2
A little while and I'd be on my way back home to you
While I was waitin' for my flight, got out and looked around

[Chorus:]
Nashville is a groovy little town

[Verse 2:]
I met some entertainers and they had an extra girl
I told them I was just a tourist out to see the world
From one place to another, yes we really made the rounds

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
Next day they all took me in just like they did before
I guess I'm trying to tell you I won't be home anymore
Now this may sound poetic, but I'm happy as a clown

[Chorus]

[Verse 4:]
Remember how I used to sit and drink and play guitar
And I'd get up and sing for all those folks at jody's bar
Well I found out it ain't too bad, the way I pick and sound

[Chorus]

[Verse 5:]
You know that nest egg that we buried in the bank awhile
Take it out and spend it darlin', dress yourself in style
You have always been a swinger and now I won't be around

[Chorus]

[Verse 6:]
I've got myself a little shack out on ol' hickory lake
And now and then I get a gig and buy myself a steak
Why'know, they published one of my old songs, they're showing it around

[Chorus]

[Verse 7:]
You remember all those tranquilizers that I used to take
Well I'm not on those anymore, I'm on old hickory lake
So when you start cryin' here's the best one-liner I have found

[Chorus:]
What else you got? Yes, nashville is a groovy little town
