Nashville Checklist Lyrics

We all had a dream to cut a record, and hear our songs on country radio.
But it seems like none of us got any traction. I guess it�s just a secret we don�t know.
So me, I started doin� lots of thinkin. Takin� notes when I would hear t...hem play.
Hearin� every word that they were singing, and every scripted thought that they would say

And I got myself a checklist now for Nashville.
And I can be a star just wait and see.
So I�ll just learn to comb my hair, and get some fancy jeans to wear.
And sing a song somebody wrote for me.

First you gotta sing about a pickup, and tell the world about your �outlaw� days.
Remind �em just how much you like a cold beer, and tell about your woman�s cheating ways.
Then you need to sing about a trailer, of course you�re gonna want a tractor song.
If you cain�t sing a lick, no need to worry. Just use that Auto-Tune and �sing� along.

And I got myself a checklist now for Nashville.
And I can be a star just wait and see.
So I�ll just learn to comb my hair, and get some fancy jeans to wear.
And sing a song somebody wrote for me.

Brag about the small size of your hometown. Shootin� deer when you were just a kid.
Eatin� deep fried something every Sunday, and prayin� hard just like your Mama did.
And you better not forget about our country. Sing about the ol� U-S-of-A.
Getting� rich while they�re out dodgin� bullets. Yeah I�m talkin �bout the few, and proud and brave.

And I got myself a checklist now for Nashville.
And I can be a star just wait and see.
So I�ll just learn to comb my hair, and get bedazzled jeans to wear.
And sing a song somebody wrote for me.

And I got myself a checklist now for Nashville.
And I can be a star just wait and see.
So I�ll just learn to grow some hair, and get some stupid shades to wear.
And sing a song somebody wrote for me.
