Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, I sure am tired of these coffeehouse gigs
'Cause there ain't no money and there ain't no chicks
It's gettin' harder and harder to get my kicks
So I bought a little ticket to Nashville
[Verse 2]
'Cause I wanna see my name up in neon lights
Drink pink champagne and party every night
All them lucky mothers up there livin' the life
Man, I gotta get my ass to Nashville
[Verse 3]
'Cause I wanna be a country star
And take it all way too far
Drinkin' free at every bar just like Bocephus
Yeah, I think it'd be a cryin' shame
Not to have my own airplane
Wanna go up in flames, me and my guitar
Man, I wanna be a country star
[Verse 4]
Well, I got a drinkin' problem so I'll fit right in
Gonna sing me some hits and get some famous friends
I'll be ridin' shotgun with Kenny, Faith and Tim
And they'll wonder how they lived without me
[Verse 5]
I'll get "Big & Rich" rich and build a big ol' house
With a big ol' fence to keep the riffraff out
Call my old girlfriends, say, "How ya like me now?"
Come on, baby, tell me what you love about me
[Verse 6]
I wanna be a country star
And take it all way too far
Breakin' all the young girls' hearts just like Keith Urban
Man, I'm thinkin' that sure sounds fun
Rockin' out with Brooks and Dunn
All the way to number one, me and my guitar
Man, I wanna be a country star
[Verse 7]
Playin' golf with Vince and Willie, hangin' out with Carrie
Underneath those big spotlights, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 8]
I wanna be a country star
Take it all way too far
Breakin' all the young girls' hearts just like Keith Urban
Oh, man, I think it sure sounds fun
Rockin' out with Brooks and Dunn
All the way to number one, me and my guitar
Man, I wanna be a country star
[Verse 9]
Country star
Yeah
Ooh
