Nutbush City Limits
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a church house
Gin house, school house
Outhouse on US 19
Hey
The people keep the city clean
They call it nutbush, nutbush
Nutbush city
Nutbush city limits.
25 is the speed limit
Motorcycles not allowed in it
Go to town on saturday
Go to church on sunday.
Up in ... up in ...
Nutbush city
Nutbush city limits.
Say it again...
Work the fields on weekdays
Have a picnic every labor day
Go to town on a friday
Be in church on a sunday.
Up in ... up in ...
Nutbush city
Nutbush city limits.
Little old town
Down in Tennessee.
A real quiet community
A real quiet Southern community
Not much happens in nutbush
You can hear the corn grow
Got to watch out for the police
Drivin' through nutbush
Got to watch out for the police,
If you're drivin' through nutbush
Watch out for the police
Watch out for the police.
Keep an eye out for the police
Keep an eye out for the police
An eye out for the police
Nutbush city limits
Nutbush city limits
Nutbush city limits.
