If Merle Would Sing My Song - Merle Haggard Lyrics - Off To Join The World - Blaine Larsen

I've been walkin' these streets of Nashville 

Since I was a little kid 

Either in these boots or in my dreams 

I spent all I had to buy this Martin 

And I've been richer since I did 

Even though I can't afford to change the strings 

 

I've heard a lot of "no's" and "no thank you's" 

Sometimes I wonder why I'm even here 

But I still could be an overnight sensation 

It would only take one sympathetic ear 

 

If Merle would sing my song, I could go back home 

And tell everyone I know that dreams come true 

I'd be someone in their eyes, a face that they'd all recognize 

I could prove them and me I wasn't wrong 

If Merle would sing my song 

 

I'll bet I've played this guitar 

In every honkytonk and bar 

But as of yet they haven't noticed me 

But this heart and soul of mine 

Is filled with memories, chords, and rhymes 

And I know that I'm the future they can't see 

 

I could maybe make a million dollars chockin' on a tie 

But then I'd have to live with my regret 

I know God didn't give me all these dreams to let 'em die 

I'll make it big, it just hasnt happened yet 

 

If Merle would sing my song, I could go back home 

And tell everyone I know that dreams come true 

I'd be someone in their eyes, a face that they'd all recognize 

I could prove them and me I wasn't wrong 

If Merle would sing my song 

 

I could prove to them and me I wasn't wrong 

If Merle would sing my song 

 

I've been walkin' these streets of Nashville 

Since I was a little kid 

Either in these boots or in my dreams
