--------------------------------------------------------------------
from lxml import html
import requests

webpage = 
"http://www.usdirectory.com/ypr.aspx?fromform=qsearch&qs=TN&wqhqn=2&qc=Nashville&rg=30&qhqn=restaurant&sb=zipdisc&ap=2"

page  = requests.get(webpage)
tree  = html.fromstring(page.content)
addr1 = tree.xpath('//span[@class="text3"]/text()')
print 'Addresses: ', addr1

I'd prefer to get clean data in the first place, but I don't know a 
better way to extract it from the HTML.
