Well, the radio is playing an unfamiliar song
The DJ calls it country, but, hell, I don't know it at all
One thing that's for certain, and I…
…it
If it ain't Johnny, Merle, or Hank, or Waylon Jennings
Yeah, if it ain't got that honky tonk heart
Like Ernest Tubb had from the…
…heart
Like George Jones had from the start
If it ain't broke, don't fix it
Well, my gramps sat down and he told me
About ten years…
…fuzz
They found me in a day or two
Now I'm flat busted in jail fightin' the Nashville Blues
Chorus
I like George Jones, Willie and Waylon…
…Miss Emmylou
I'm too young to have a point of view
But I just want to be a part of fightin' the Nashville Blues
Fightin' the…
…to prayin'
But my hands are worn like the soles of my shoes
And the Lord only knows I'm just fightin' the Nashville Blues
Chorus
I like Johnny Cash…
…(Chorus)
Lord don?t you walk with a little
Sawin? on a fiddle and the crying of a steel guitar
Coming from the heart and…
Then you?ve come to the right place
You miss Waylon, if it don?t make you smile
Like Willie and George Jones
You better stick around…
…solute ole Glory and I give glory to the lord
I tip my hat to ole E.T. and his Texas Troubadours…
Let's put the O back in country
Well, I'm rollin? like a freight train
Comin? straight at you
Playin? hillbilly music
Like I…
…for me
Better get ready for the country
Ain't I a sight to see
You know there ain't no soul on the radio
Let's put the O back…
…a little George Jones
A little Merle Haggard and a little bit of the Stones
Add a little Cash and a whole lotta Waylon…

Ass a little Cash and a whole lotta Waylon
Are you ready for the…
It had bubbles goin' round and a big bass sound
You could feel right through your feet
Like a beacon in the night with the green and…
Beatles
Really took a lot of hard knocks
And I met my lovin' honey and spent all my money
Feedin' that old jukebox
It's been…
Jerry Lee and Merle
They're rockin' all around the world
To George Jones and Rolling Stones
Waylon and Willie and…
…got to sing one with Willie
[Verse 2: George Strait]
Now I've heard him with Merle, Waylon, and Cash
Jones and…
…down all the highways
Wherever our big buses can go
But I think that it's great
To finally sing one with Strait
And…
Well, you shoulda said somethin', Strait
I always thought we would sound great
And I finally got to sing one with ol' George…

On my guitar, brothers and sisters come, and gather around
A country state of mind
We'll pass a little musky vine wine
Yeah…
I'm telling you it's about time (time, it's about time)

I watched Waylon and Merle
They were the kings of the world
Far as I was concerned, and…
