I've got the blues, those Nashville blues
I've got the blues, those Nashville blues
Ain't got no hat, ain't got no shoes
The people here they treat me fine
The people here they treat me fine
They give me beer and they give me wine
(break)
I'm a-going back to Arkansaw
I'm a-going back to Arkansaw
Gonna stay right there with my pa and ma
I've got the blues, those Nashville blues
I've got the blues, those Nashville blues
Ain't got no heat, ain't got no shoes
(break)
The people here they treat me fine
The people here they treat me fine
They give me beer and they give me wine
I've got the blues, those Nashville blues
I've got the blues, those Nashville blues
Ain't got no heat, ain't got no shoes
