Nashville Rash Lyrics

Help me Merle, Im breakin out in a Nashville rash
Its a-looking like Im fallin in the cracks
Im too country now for country, just like Johnny Cash
Help me Merle, Im breakin out in a Nashville rashShoulda known it when they closed the Opry down
Things are bound to change in that town
You cant grow when you rip the roots out of the ground
Looks like that Nashville rash is getting roundChorusAint it funny how things can really change
Rock and roll back in the 70s are country hits today
Breaks my heart to see my heros fadin away
The victims of Nashville rash, its Nashvilles waysChorus 2:Help me Merle, Im breakin out in a Nashville rash
Its a-looking like Im fallin in the cracks
Im too country now for country, just like Johnny Cash
And Buck Ownes and Faron Young and Johnny Bush
Ad Johnny Paycheck and Charley Pride and Loretta Lynn, Mmmmmmm
Help me Merle, Im breakin out in a Nashville rashAw good god its gonna be the death of us
