An Amazing Sojourn

Off to Nashville you went
So your songs could be heard 
The competition was tough
Often without a kind word

But you held to your gun
Because you had something to say
And that was something to be proud of
And reflect on day-by-day

You believed in yourself
You knew you were right
You were a resolute trouper
You gave it your best fight

Now that many years have passed
And memories wane
If you had it to do over,
Would you do it all again?
