I remember wearin' straight leg Levis |
|
Flannel shirts Even when they weren't in style |
|
I remember singin' with Roy Rogers |
|
at the movies when the West was really wild |
|
And I was listenin' to the Opry |
|
When all of my friends |
|
were diggin' Rock 'n Roll and Rhythm & Blues |
|
I was Country, when Country wasn't cool |
|
I remember circlin' the drive-in, |
|
pullin' up and turnin' down George Jones |
|
I remember when no one was lookin' |
|
I was puttin' peanuts in my Coke |
|
I took a lot of kiddin' |
|
'Cause I never did fit in |
|
now look at everybody |
|
tryin' to be what I was then |
|
I was Country, when Country wasn't cool |
|
Oooh |
|
(Chorus:) |
|
I was Country, when Country wasn't cool |
|
I was Country, from my hat down to my boots |
|
I still act, and look the same |
|
What you see ain't nothin' new |
|
I was Country, when Country wasn't cool |
|
(Instrumental Break) |
|
They call us country bumpkins |
|
For stickin' to our roots |
|
I'm just glad we're in a country |
|
Where we're all free to choose |
|
I was Country, when Country wasn't cool |
|
(George Jones) |
|
Hey I was Country, when Country wasn't cool |
|
Yeah I was country, from my hat down to, Whoa my boots |
|
I still act, and look the same |
|
What you see ain't nothin' new |
|
Yeah, I was Country when Country wasn't cool |
