Song | Old School Country Song |
Artist | Joe Nichols |
Album | Crickets |
Somewhere in the world tonight | |
Someone’s on a red-eye flight | |
While someone’s heart is breaking back at home | |
Somewhere out there in a bar | |
Someone swipes a credit card | |
Buys a beer to cry in all night long | |
In a chat room out in cyberspace | |
They might not be face to face | |
They both know they’re up to something wrong | |
They say we’ve come a long long way | |
Talkin’ ‘bout the world today | |
It still sounds like an old school country song | |
Cause folks still love and folks still leave | |
Drunks get drunk and cheaters cheat | |
And there’s just something lonesome about a midnight train | |
Someone done somebody wrong | |
We’ll miss mama when she’s gone | |
And trust me that ain’t never gonna change | |
Breakin’ up is still a mess | |
It don’t make a heart hurt less | |
Cause you text it from a mobile phone | |
All you’ve really done you see | |
Is modernize the melody | |
But it still sounds like an old school country song | |
Folks still love and folks still leave | |
Drunks get drunk and cheaters cheat | |
And there’s just something lonesome about a midnight train | |
Someone done somebody wrong | |
We’ll miss mama when she’s gone | |
And trust me that ain’t never gonna change | |
You can take it off that old jukebox | |
Burn it on your new iPod | |
But three chords and the truth are just as strong | |
You can say we’ve come a long long way | |
Play what you wanna play | |
But there’s nothing like an old school country song | |
Yeah life is still an old school country song |
Somewhere in the world tonight | |
Someone' s on a redeye flight | |
While someone' s heart is breaking back at home | |
Somewhere out there in a bar | |
Someone swipes a credit card | |
Buys a beer to cry in all night long | |
In a chat room out in cyberspace | |
They might not be face to face | |
They both know they' re up to something wrong | |
They say we' ve come a long long way | |
Talkin' ' bout the world today | |
It still sounds like an old school country song | |
Cause folks still love and folks still leave | |
Drunks get drunk and cheaters cheat | |
And there' s just something lonesome about a midnight train | |
Someone done somebody wrong | |
We' ll miss mama when she' s gone | |
And trust me that ain' t never gonna change | |
Breakin' up is still a mess | |
It don' t make a heart hurt less | |
