If Merle Would Sing My Song lyrics
(feat. Merle Haggard)
I ve been walkin these streets of Nashville
Since I was a little kid
Either in these boots or in my dreams
I spent all I had to buy this Martin
And I ve been richer since I did
Even though I can t afford to change the strings
I ve heard a lot of "no s" and "no thank you s"
Sometimes I wonder why I m even here
But I still could be an overnight sensation
It would only take one sympathetic ear
If Merle would sing my song, I could go back home
And tell everyone I know that dreams come true
I d be someone in their eyes, a face that they d all recognize
I could prove them and me I wasn t wrong
If Merle would sing my song
I ll bet I ve played this guitar
In every honkytonk and bar
But as of yet they haven t noticed me
But this heart and soul of mine
Is filled with memories, chords, and rhymes
And I know that I m the future they can t see
I could maybe make a million dollars chockin on a tie
But then I d have to live with my regret
I know God didn t give me all these dreams to let em die
I ll make it big, it just hasnt happened yet
If Merle would sing my song, I could go back home
And tell everyone I know that dreams come true
I d be someone in their eyes, a face that they d all recognize
I could prove them and me I wasn t wrong
If Merle would sing my song
I could prove to them and me I wasn t wrong
If Merle would sing my song
I ve been walkin these streets of Nashville
Since I was a little kid
Either in these boots or in my dreams
