Lyrics

Nashville cats Play clean as country water Nashville cats Play wild as mountain dew Nashville cats Been playin' since they's babies Nashville cats Get work before they're two Well, there's thirteen hundred and fifty-two guitar pickers in Nashville And they can pick more notes than the number of ants on a Tennessee ant hill There's thirteen hundred and fifty-two guitar cases in Nashville And anyone that unpacks his guitar can play twice as better than I will Nashville cats Play clean as country water Nashville cats Play wild as mountain dew Nashville cats Been playin' since they's babies Nashville cats Get work before they're two Hey, I was just 13, you might say I was a musical proverbial knee-high When I heard a couple new sounding tunes on the tube, and they blasted me sky-high Then the record man said everyone is a yellow sun record in Nashville And up north, there ain't nobody buy 'em, and I said, but I will, and it was Nashville cats Play clean as country water Nashville cats Play wild as mountain dew Nashville cats Been playin' since they's babies Nashville cats Get work before they're two Well, there's sixteen thousand eight hundred twenty-one 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 got a chance to say a word about the music and the mothers from Nashville Nashville cats Play clean as country water Nashville cats Play wild as mountain dew Those Nashville cats Been playin' since they's babies All the Nashville cats Get work before they're two Kick it
