Lyrics
(Verse 1)
My dream?s to move to Nashville because I want to be a Country star
I wanna buy a house in Brentwood, and drive a Cadillac XLR
All the girls will love me, I?ll have too much money to spend
Gonna give mama everything she wants, go to the CMAs and win
(Chorus)
Music Row?s calling my name and I?m answering today
I?m gonna load my little pickup, say some goodbyes and be on my way
I?ve got 80 bucks in my pocket, but for me there is no stoppin?
Until I?m standing on the Opry stage, and singin? this song one day
(Verse 2)
I?ll bear hug mama goodbye, she kisses my cheek with tears in her eyes
I turn my back, walk out the door, get in my truck and then I drive
The radio?s playing Waylon, for some reason I start to cry
When I adjust my rear view mirror, I see mama still waivin? goodbye
(Chorus)
Music Row?s calling my name and I?m answering today
I?m gonna load my little pickup, say some goodbyes and be on my way
I?ve got 80 bucks in my pocket, but for me there is no stoppin?
Until I?m standing on the Opry stage, and singin? this song one day
(Bridge)
It took so long to get here, but it's been worth the wait
Have no fear, hold onto your dreams, whatever it takes
(Chorus)
Music Row?s calling my name and I?m answering today
I?m gonna load my little pickup, say some goodbyes and be on my way
I?ve got 80 bucks in my pocket, but for me there is no stoppin?
Until I?m standing on the Opry stage, and singin? this song one day
Music Row?s calling and I?m answering today
