Lindi Ortega - Tin Star lyrics

rate me

Oh you don’t know me

I’m a nobody

I sing on the strip

For a few pennies

I got a busted string

And broken guitar

I’ve been singing for tips

Down at the local bar

Like an old tin star

beat up and rusty

Lost in the shining stars

Of Nashville Tennessee

Well I wrote this song

For those who are like

Lost in the shining stars, the shining stars

Well we don’t got fame

No name in lights

No billboard hits

No sold out nights

We got dues to pay

Tryna make our way

Some of us wait on luck

While some just pray

Like an old tin star

beat up and rusty

Lost in the shining stars

Of Nashville Tennessee

Well I wrote this song

For those who are like

Lost in the shining stars, the shining stars

Well if the music wasn’t running

Through the blood in my veins

I might just walk away

Oh I would walk away

But the music keeps on running

Through the blood in my veins

And it just makes me stay

Oh it makes me stay

Like an old tin star

beat up and rusty

Lost in the shining stars

Of Nashville Tennessee

Well I wrote this song

For those who are like me

lost in the shining stars, the shining stars

Of Nashville Tennessee

For those who are like me
