Nashville Mirrors Lyrics - Bill Anderson

In a dusty old saloon out west in Abilene 

Dreaming dreams at forty that he dreamed at seventeen 

He sings and plays his guitar for all of you bucks tonight 

Still tryin' to be a star and see his name in lights 

Somewhere the organ's playin' a hymn of salvation 

As she sings so low for the congregation 

In her mind she's at the Opry and her friends filled the pews 

And she can hear them saying she's Loretta No.2 

Looking in Nashville mirrors you can close your eyes and dream who you are 

Looking in Nashville mirrors it's easy to see the reflection of the star

NEW SONG: Chris Lane - 'Big, Big Plans' (Video for Lauren) - LYRICS 

Lil Nas X - 'Old Town Road' ft. Billy Ray Cyrus - LYRICS 

Loadin' steel in Pittsburg savin' every dime he raise 

He's headin' south to Nashville prayin' for the break 

Every song he's written it's gonna be a country hit 

He hates to leave his family but his dream won't let him quit 

In a honky tonk in Georgia she looks old at sixteen 

Lord she hates the spotlights she don't even like the scene 

But daddy's pushin' her to be the star he can't be 

Those lyin' Nashville mirrors there's so easy to believe 

Looking in Nashville mirrors...

Excepting his award on the Grammy show tonight 

That cowboy's now an outlaw stoned out of his mind 

He's found that a star only lights an empty space 

And the mirrors that he dreamed in he can't find the nerve to face 

Looking in Nashville mirrors... 

Sometimes it takes a lifetime to see the fool you are
