Nutbush City Limits Lyrics By Bob Seger

    there’s a church house gin house
    schoolhouse outhouse
    on us 9
    hey the people keep the city clean
    they call it nutbush
    ah nutbush
    nutbush city
    nutbush city limits
    5 is the speed limit
    motorcycles not allowed in
    go to town on saturday
    go to church every sunday
    up in
    up in
    nutbush city
    nutbush city limits

    pre
    no whiskey for sale
    can’t find a female
    salt pork and molasses
    all you gonna get if you end in jail
    in
    in
    nutbush city
    nutbush city limits

    say it again

    little old town oh down in tennessee
    a quiet little ol’ community
    a real quiet real southern community
    nothing much ever happens in nutbush
    you can hear the corn grow
    you got to watch out for the police
    you’re driving through nutbush
    you better watch out for the police
    if you’re driving through nutbush
    you got to watch out for the police
    eye for the police
    keep an eye for the police
    keep an eye for the police
    eye for the police
    oh

    nutbush city limits
    nutbush city limits
    nutbush city limits
    stay alive
