Letra

I tuned in the Grand Ole Opry show again last night
To hear what country music has to say
About God, s*x, and politics and raising families right
And how the outlaws did it in their day
I heard songs about the way a woman looks in her bluejeans
Songs about what white folks say that being southern means
Ballads weighing pros and cons of whiskey, wine, and beer
No one's singing protest songs this year
Some sang hymns extolling dirt roads, swimming holes, and open skies
But the stage was schtum on wetlands, oil spills, and rising tides
Loads of odes to tipping back on six packs in a truck
Leaving voids for kids on opioids in small towns down on luck
I heard songs about the way a woman looks in her bluejeans
Songs about what white folks say that being southern means
A serenade to U.S. made values we hold dear
No one's singing protest songs this year
Then a songbird from Alberta nearly knocked me off my feet
With a rousing anthem for a daughter of the street
In Canada, they spun her all the way to number one
Oh, Canada . . . we're only having fun
With our songs about the way a woman looks in her bluejeans
Our songs about what white folks say
We're not obsessed with those oppressed by tyranny and fear
Thank God we don't need protest songs this year
Cause no one's singing protest songs this year
