Lyrics

[Verse 1]
New kid in town, he's a stoner
Singing through a homegrown grin
Up on stage, he's a loner
Got a small band of outlaw friends
You can tell by his songs he's done some living
Oh, he's danced with a heartache or two
Late night beer joint women
He's out to walk in ole Hank's shoes
[Chorus]
Down on Broadway, they come to sing
Riding on high hopes, living on dreams
Streets are crawling with them here in guitar town
It chews them up and spits them out
It's in the blood that some of them bleed
For some an unsung mystery
Hard row to hoe here in Tennessee
We got them that are and has-beens
And never gonna be
[Verse 2]
Some may drown in the whiskey
I've seen them burn out on speed
A few walk the straight and narrow
Some stay high on weed
Most come from little or nothing
All have something to prove
Songs about losing and loving
Most end up just singing the blues
[Chorus]
Down on Broadway, they come to sing
Riding on high hopes, living on dreams
Streets are crawling with them here in guitar town
It chews them up, it spits them out
It's in the blood that some of them bleed
For some an unsung mystery
Hard row to hoe here in Tennessee
We got big stars, has-beens
And never gonna be
[Chorus]
Down on Broadway, they come to sing
Riding on high hopes, living on dreams
Streets are crawling with them here in guitar town
It chews them up and spits them out
It's in the blood that some of them bleed
For some an unsung mystery
Hard row to hoe here in Tennessee
We got big stars, has-beens
And never gonna be
[Outro]
It's a hard row to hoe here in Tennessee
We got them that are and has-beens
And never gonna be
New kid in town, he's a stoner
