nobody knows her name

she sits alone in a motel room

watchin the sun lay low

in a western sky

it's a long way to nashville

it's all uphill

maybe she'll make it this time

a travellin man in a beat-up van

playin for hopes & dreams

maybe some gasoline

& blood from her calloussed hands

flows across the strings

but tonight she sings

& nobody knows her name

feels her pain

won't ya sing her one more song

sing it loud

won't ya sing along

na da da da

la da da da da da

la da da

she sits alone in a motel room

watchin the stars shine bright

in a southern sky

she hasnt seen her family in half a year
