(Heather Myles)

I was raised on country, a steady dose of Haggard and Jones
Conway and Low Rutter were always on the radio
But everything has changed since then, they say it's for the good
But I think it's a crying shame, Nashville's gone Hollywood.

You won't need a steel guitar in your watered down rock'n roll
And you might even find yourself on the cover of The Rolling Stone
You'll be looking mighty fine in your designer clothes
An' you won't need the Opry, you'll be singin' on Jay Leno.

They'll put you in the movies, you'll have your video
And if you're young and sexy you'll be rolling in the dough
You'll sell a million records so that must mean you're good
Move on over Ernest Tubb, Nashville's gone Hollywood.

I'm still gigging on Broadway, making rounds on Music Row
Hoping maybe someday I'll hear my song on the radio
But they say I'm too country, I wouldn't change it if I could
'Cause I think it's a crying shame Nashville's gone Hollywood.

They'll put you in the movies, you'll have your video
And if you're young and sexy you'll be rolling in the dough
You'll sell a million records so that must mean you're good
Move on over Ernest Tubb, Nashville's gone Hollywood.

Yeah, move on over Ernest Tubb, Nashville's gone Hollywood...
