Nashville - Ray Stevens

I’ve climbed up the Eiffel tower

Floated down the river Nile

Seen the bull fights in Madrid

And watched those señoritas smile

Been a tourist with my camera

At the ruins of Old Rome

But the pictures in my mind

Are all of home

I’ve seen the opera house in Sydney

And the temples of Bombay

Watched the seagulls skim the white caps

Over San Francisco Bay

Seen the palm trees of Tahiti

And the sands of Waikiki

But there is just one place

I’m wishing I could be

My heart keeps going back to Nashville

That’s the only place for me

My love is waitin' there in Nashville

Nashville, Tennessee

They’re making music down in Nashville

Just the way it ought to be

I gotta get that jet back home to Nashville

Nashville, Tennessee

I’ve seen the tower of London

The dykes of Amsterdam

The Taj Mahal, the Berlin wall

But through it all, no matter where I am

My heart keeps going home to Nashville

That’s the only place for me

My love is waiting there in Nashville

Nashville, Tennessee

There’s a new show at the Ryman

Everyone’s a Titans fan

They’re still selling out the Opry

It’s still Old and it’s still Grand

They’re making music down in Nashville

Chet’s a-picking one for me

I gotta get that jet back home to Nashville

Nashville, Tennessee

Nashville, Tennessee

Nashville, Tennessee
