A Nashville Tribute

Nashville    [a song]

By: Amelia Rose
For Zach and Brenda

A dynamic city

Hipster shops line the rows

Good food and coffee

Honky Tonks

A prestigious University

Music shows

Everyone just get in line

Because it’s Nashville, Nashville

Bustling in the sunshine

But then the rain begins to sprinkle

And the city streets clear

Students, Tourists, Musicians,

People

All rush to their cars

That are parked pretty near

They hide from the rain

That falls from the sky

Just trying, trying

Trying to stay dry.

And then there’s me.

Rushing through the rain drops

Walking through the town

Dipping into cool shops

Enjoying the city’s sound

(Chorus)

Rushing through the raindrops

Looking at all the cool shops

Nashville, Nashville

Pulling out all the stops

Nashville, Nashville

I’ve got you all to myself

With my little red umbrella

I’ll meet you over on Twelfth

Hurry up, hurry up

It’s time to go

Gotta leave this awesome city

Wishing time would just go slow

The rain is pouring harder now

But I don’t really care

I throw my head back, laughing, smiling

As raindrops fall upon my hair

(Chorus)

Rushing through the raindrops

Looking at all the cool shops

Nashville, Nashville

Pulling out all the stops

Nashville, Nashville

I’ve got you all to myself

With my little red umbrella

I’ll meet you over on Twelfth
