There's a church house, gin house
A little school house, outhouse
On US 19
Hey, the people keep the city clean
They call it Nutbush
Ah, Nutbush
Nutbush city
Nutbush city limits

25 is the speed limit
Motorcycles not allowed in
Go to town on Saturday
In church every Sunday
Up in
Up in
Nutbush city
Nutbush city limits

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, down in Tennessee:
Quiet... yeah, yeah
As I told everybody last night
I was reading in Rollin’ Stone where
They said Detroit audiences are the greatest
Rock n roll audiences in the world
I thought to myself ‘Shit, I’ve known that for ten years!’

You got to watch out for the police
If you drive into Nutbush
Better watch out for the police
If you cruise into Nutbush
Keep an eye out for the police
Keep an eye out for the police
Keep an eye out for the police
Keep an eye out for the police

Better keep an eye
Better keep an eye out
Better, better, better, better, better keep an eye
Say, look out!
You better keep an eye
