Charles Kelley Leaving Nashville Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pour out your heart in 3:20
The one you didn't write for the money
You turn it in, nobody's listening
But you got a cut, so the check's coming
If it ain't a single, it don't mean nothing
But every girl with a dream wants to be your friend

[Pre-Chorus 1]
One day, you're the king, and the next, you're not
It's handshakes and whiskey shots, boy
And throwing up in parking lots all by yourself
[Chorus 1]
But I ain't never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving Nashville

[Verse 2]
You're getting calls from old friends
They say, "Heard your song - wanna write again?"
You're coming up with brand new ways to say no
Then you're six months without a hold
Every other day, you're getting canceled
Calling up old friends; that's just the way it goes

[Pre-Chorus 2]
One day, you're the king, the next you're not Handshakes and whiskey shots, boy
And throwing up in parking lots all gone to Hell

[Chorus 2]
Hell, I ain't never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving Nashville

[Bridge]
Oh, and your friends are friends with country stars
Yeah, they're buying homes and here you are
You're two months from living in your car
[Chorus 3]
But you ain't never leaving Nashville
You ain't never leaving Nashville

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Oh, one day, you're the king, and the next you're not
It's handshakes and whiskey shots, boy
To picking up the pieces you lost of yourself

[Chorus 4]
Well, I ain't never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving Nashville
I ain't never leaving this town, oh

[Outro]
One day you're the king, and the next you're not
