West Nashville Grand Ballroom Gown
By: Jimmy Buffett
1974
Intro: C F G C F G
C F G C
Standin' on side of the Highway 4 exit
C F G C
A Lady in a tie-dye with a bag by her side
C F G C
Not really lookin' like anything special
C F G C
Saw Tennessee tags and she waved for a ride
Sat right beside me as the 'meter hit sixty
'Splainin' her travels and her family background
When she got through, I could not help but thinkin'
She's a long way from the west Nashville grand ballroom gown
Chorus:
G D G
Father had money and her mother had love
D G
Channeled entirely to her dear sister Dove
D G
Twenty-two years in society's plan
F D
Was cancelled with a swing of her dear mother's hand
Six hours later, we hit Cincinatti
Yawnin' she woke and then asked where we were
When she found out, she said, "I must be goin'"
This close to Nashville was too close for her
So I stopped by the roadside and I gave her five dollars
She took it then kissed me and gave me a note
She told me just to read it and mail it Nashville
On old looseleaf paper to her mother she wrote:
Chorus:
She said: Mama, I'm fine, if you happen to wonder
I don't have much money but I still get around
I haven't made church in near thirty-six Sundays
So *** all those west Nashville grand ballroom gowns
(she's a long way from the west Nashville grand ballroom gown)
Enjoy!
