If Merle Would Sing My Song Lyrics

BLAINE LARSEN LYRICS

"If Merle Would Sing My Song"
(feat. Merle Haggard)

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 guitarBlaine Larsen - If Merle Would Sing My Song - http://motolyrics.com/blaine-larsen/if-merle-would-sing-my-song-lyrics.html
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
