Nashville Rash Lyrics - Cheatin' Heart Attack - Dale Watson

Help me Merle, Im breakin out in a Nashville rash 

Its a-looking like Im fallin in the cracks 

Im too country now for country, just like Johnny Cash 

Help me Merle, Im breakin out in a Nashville rash 

Shoulda known it when they closed the Opry down 

Things are bound to change in that town 

You cant grow when you rip the roots out of the ground 

Looks like that Nashville rash is getting round 

Chorus 

Aint it funny how things can really change 

Rock and roll back in the 70s are country hits today 

Breaks my heart to see my heros fadin away 

The victims of Nashville rash, its Nashvilles ways 

Chorus 2: 

Help me Merle, Im breakin out in a Nashville rash 

Its a-looking like Im fallin in the cracks 

Im too country now for country, just like Johnny Cash 

And Buck Ownes and Faron Young and Johnny Bush 

Ad Johnny Paycheck and Charley Pride and Loretta Lynn, Mmmmmmm 

Help me Merle, Im breakin out in a Nashville rash 

Aw good god its gonna be the death of us
