King of Country Music

You can hear him in the church house on Sunday morning

They still play him on the radio

You can hear his voice from Saginaw to Houston

It echoes down the halls on Music Row

Some say Jones, some say Travis

Some say Strait, some say Haggard

Are sitting on the throne

All that's well and good

Don't get me wrong

But the king of country music is the song

Speaking for the nine to fivers in the trenches

Makes them feel like he's right there with them too

It ain't the steel, it ain't the fiddle

It ain't that ride in the middle

It's just three simple chords and the truth

Some say Jones, some say Travis

Some say Strait, some say Haggard

Are sitting on the throne

All that's well and good

Don't get me wrong

But the king of country music is

I saw the light, I walk the line

And amazing grace

It's always on my mind

And he stopped loving her today

Well, some say Jones, some say Travis

Some say Strait, some say Haggard

Are sitting on the throne

Well, all that's well and good

Don't get me wrong

But the king of country music is the song

Yeah, it's the song
