lirik lagu jon langford - nashville radio / death of country music

{nashville radio}

drink and pills and nashville radio
life will never be the same
chills and spills from maine to mexico
ridin’ on my funeral train

in every town there’s the same tribulation
in every state i wake up in
the night before is a dim recollection
of powders and bottles and sin

there’s a bald little stranger heading out the door
just about half my age
blood on the walls glass on the floor
i don’t think i even made it on stage

doctor doctor, sign my prescription
i’m in trouble again
ever since i was a tiny little baby
just couldn’t get rid of the pain

drink and pills and nashville radio
life will never be the same
chills and spills from maine to mexico
ridin’ on my funeral train
i shake my hips but i walk like a cripple
my body is getting too thin
can count every one of my bones in the mirror
pokin’ through my cold white skin

there’s a shiny star on the dressing room door
but i’ll be out in the back of my car
cause i don’t know a soul i can trust with the money
to tune up my guitar

drink and pills and nashville radio
life will never be the same
chills and spills from maine to mexico
ridin’ on my funeral train

doctor doctor, sign my prescription
i’m in trouble again
ever since i was a tiny little baby
i just couldn’t get rid of the pain

i can’t sleep without the engine humming
and the wheels rolling night and day
i can’t sleep without the nashville radio
slipping through the chemical haze

playing some song that i should remember
with the dj calling my name
play my song on the nashville radio
my life will never be the same
ever since i was a tiny little baby
i couldn’t get to sleep at night
i’d be listening to the nashville radio
hours before day light

they threw me off the grand ole opry
cause i couldn’t behave
didn’t know how many friends i had
till i was lying in a cold dark grave

i gave my life to country music
i took my pills and lost
now they don’t play my songs on the radio
feels like i never was
it’s like i never was

fat sweaty cop in an alabama lockup
looked at me and laughed
heard my records on the nashville radio
asked me for my autograph

well doctor doctor, sign my prescription
i’m in trouble again
ever since i was a tiny little baby
i just couldn’t get rid of the pain
{the death of country music}

my body is a temple
safer than a prison
i’ve done some demolition
and in a world gone wrong

the death of country music
rattles round the planet
we light the flame and fan it
deep into the night

where the city casts its shadow
we leave the straight and narrow
tomorrow and forever
will seem so far away

where the dance floor’s overcrowded
the music’s getting louder
the people do some breathing
while they’re cheating death

tonight the west is sleeping
the desert will be creeping
inch by inch
across the continent

and the bones of country music
lie there in their casket
beneath the towers of nashville
in a deep black pool of neglect

so we cast our nets in the water
drag the pool and caught ‘em
we grind them up and snort ‘em
deep into the night

and we spill some blood on the ashes
of the bones of the jones and the cashes
skulls in false eyelashes
ghostriders in the sky

and the hank bone’s connected to the buckbone
the george bone’s connected to the hank bone
the willie bone’s connected to the billy bones
we’re picking the flesh off the bones

the death of country music
the death of country music
the death of country music
picking the flesh off the bones
