    Default Getting Old On Lower Broadway

    We came down here in sixty-one
    Me and my parents to the Grand Ole Opry
    Saw Marty Robbins play the Ryman
    This town made an impression on me
    A few blocks on the Cumberland River
    Tootsie's, Legends, Ernest Tubb's
    Starting to think it's a cemetery
    No one knows who Ernest Tubb was

    Getting Old On Lower Broadway
    Here in Nashville, Tennessee
    Time really flies in this here town
    It's made an old man outta me
    I came back here at twenty-nine
    Knew from the start I's gonna stay
    That was some forty years ago

    Now it's Eric, Jason and Luke
    Miranda, Kacey and Little Big Town
    I'm still singing at WannaB's
    This karaoke sure gets me down
    Gotta watch out for those cops
    Those bloodsuckers are everywhere
    They'll pull you over, take your money
    Take you to jail, they don't care

    Here in Nashville, Tennessee
    Time really flies in this here town

    When I'm dead
    Make this my grave
    Bury me down
    On Lower Broadway
