I ain't got no money, I ain't got no sense Headed down to Nashville, just to say I went They checked me at the border but I left my guns at home I don't want no trouble, man, just came to sing my songs
Well, I don't want no trouble, man, but trouble's what I found Guess I'm hell-bent and Nashville bound
Somewhere in Kentucky, stopped for one or two Some Redneck started talkin' trash 'bout my hair and my tattoo Tried to do the right thing but I busted my left hand Sheriff and a 45 through me in the county can Well, I don't want no trouble, man, but trouble's what I found Guess I'm hell-bent and Nashville bound
Hell-bent and Nashville bound, wiskey bottles by the pound Devil's tryin' to keep me down, hundred miles to guitar town Hell-bent and Nashville bound (hell-bent and Nashville bound) I'm hell-bent and Nashville bound

I ain't got no money, no way to go my bail Just rollin' smokes and killin' time sittin' in this county jail Now the Jailer's got a daughter and she's smilin' back at me Says she's never been to Nashville, while she's handin' me the key I don't want no trouble, man, but trouble's what I found Guess I'm hell-bent and Nashville bound, yeah
Hell-bent and Nashville bound, wiskey bottles by the pound Devil's tryin' to keep me down, fifty miles to guitar town Hell-bent and Nashville bound (hell-bent and Nashville bound) Yes, I'm hell-bent and Nashville bound (hell-bent and Nashville bound) Hell-bent and Nashville bound (hell-bent and Nashville bound) Hell-bent and Nashville bound (hell-bent and Nashville bound) Hell-bent and Nashville bound (hell-bent and Nashville bound).
