Even though you may be in Tokyo
Or under Seattle skies
The first sound you heard were in Nashville
Where I wrote you this lullaby
We heard that lonesome cowboy
Under ever-changing skies
The first sound you heard were in Nashville
Where I wrote you this lullaby
The rhythm on the riverboat
Rocking us to sleep
Dreaming with your daddy
Of the day we would meet
If you like the taste of sweet tea
Or find yourself craving pie
You had him here in Nashville
Where I wrote you this lullaby
Yes, you had him here in Nashville
Where I wrote you this lullaby
