Marty Stuart - Sundown In Nashville Lyrics
Written by Dwayne WarwickThe sign says "Welcome to Nashville"From whatever road you've been downIt seems like the first of the milestonesFor here is the city, the townIt's a quaint, old mystical cityWhere legends and idols have stoodIt's a place, where dreams come to harborA country boy's HollywoodBut it's lonely at sundown in NashvilleThat's when beaten souls start to weepEach evening at sundown in NashvilleThey sweep broken dreams off the streetYou'll walk, down 16th to BroadwayInto a world of heartache and painWhere hillbilly honky tonk angelsCry out, from the dark side of fameYou'll find, some discarded love songsAnd tear stains all over the groundIn a city where dreams get shatteredAnd swept to the outskirts of townBut it's lonely at sundown in NashvilleThat's when beaten souls start to weepEach evening at sundown in NashvilleThey sweep, broken dreams off the streetThey sweep, broken dreams off the street
