Tough Town

Recommended Posts

This is Nashville
If you ain't tough
You will be
Or you don't have a prayer

This is Nashville
They roll in here
From everywhere
This old town don't care

It's a Tough Town
It's seen it all
You'll go home
If you don't have money

Tough Town
We can all sing
We can all play
Got our own songs, son (honey)

Think your songs are good
They all think that
And that's why
They leave good jobs behind

Leave their girl friends
Leave their boy friends
They have no clue
'Bout the hell they'll find

It's a Tough Town
It's seen it all
You'll go home
If you don't have money
Tough Town
We can all sing
We can all play
Got our own songs, son (honey)

Bridge:
There's room at the top
For only a few
I'd bet my last dollar
It ain't you

This is Nashville
They roll in here
From everywhere
This old town don't care

It's a Tough Town
It's seen it all
You'll go home
If you don't have money
Tough Town
We can all sing
We can all play
Got our own songs, son (honey)

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
