Neon of Nashville

歌詞

She was raised on a river By a chapel where the church bells pealed Between a line of peach trees And a brown ol' tobacco field Her eyes they shone of turquoise And her hair was a waterfall And everyone from all around Swore that she'd go far They sing of her beauty in Georgia And on the Carolina Coast And down in the Neon of Nashville They almost seem to sing of her Like she was a ghost The city lights lured her And the glitter of the Silver Stage Her beauty was so astounding That it made her too easily made High Society dragged her down To Where the lonliness was too much To bear And she faded from the limelight And no one knew just where They sing of her beauty in Georgia And on the Carolina Coast And down in the Neon of Nashville They almost seem to sing of her Like she was a ghost Now some one said they saw her Years later at the bottom of Main Fifth of whiskey in her hand Codine in her brain When they hummed her song about the peach trees And a brown tobacco field Her eyes grew distant- she whispered, Listen "There's the chapel where the church bells pealed." They sing of her beauty in Georgia And on the Carolina Coast And down in the Neon of Nashville They almost seem to sing of her Like she was a ghost
