I pulled into Nashville half past 3
I was there to meet my destiny
With a song to sing, Lord knows I've had enough
It won't be long now 'til I'm blowin' up

Hey there, mama, just you wait and see
This town will make a star of me
We had it rough, but you love me enough
It won't be long now 'til I'm blowin' up

You're gonna read all about it
Maybe you just won't understand
And for all of you who doubted
This is how I take my stand
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh

Mama, I'm gonna put it all to bed
Mama, I'm gonna paint this whole town red
I'll be everywhere all at once
And it won't be long, now I'm blowin' up
Yeah, yeah

You're gonna read all about it
Maybe you just won't undеrstand, oh Lord
And for all of you who doubted
This is how I take my stand
Yeah, yеah, yeah, ooh

Oh yeah
It's time I make my stand, oh yeah, baby
