I Didn't Go Country!

I Didn't Go Country! I Heard a Lot Of Folks Today Talking About The Rhythm And Blues I Even Heard One of Them Say He Like A Little Country Too And They Were Going on Jacking Their Jaws Not Having A Clue Ticking Me Off I Even Heard the Other Three Say They Brought Some Boots and Hats Yea, But Where I'm From Your Sure to Get A Good Laugh Because A Country Boy Can See Straight Through Your Soul You Can Talk About Tradition That You Don't Know But What You're Trying to Be Is The Place I Never Had To Go I Didn't Go Country I'm From the South I Didn't Start Wearing Boots When Garth Came Out I've Been Pig-Picking, Frog Gigging Raising My Own Chickens Four Wheeling, Rod and Reeling Harvest Crops, Tomato Dealing Hunting With My Mudslinging Buddies I Didn't Go Country When I Turn on The Radio Country Music Is Really Changing I Ain't Talking About the Style I'm Talking About the People That Sings It A Whole Lot Of Hollywood At The Top Of The Charts While The True Southerners' Laying in The Dark I Wonder If Ole Hank Was Here What Would He Say? But Then Again If He Was Here It Wouldn't Be That Way Because He'd Call Up Mr. Pride Ole Johnny and Merle They'd Call Up Ole Barbra Mandrel and The Girls Cause They Were Country Before Country Music Was Even Cool They Didn't Go Country That Was Their Life They Didn't Sing for The Money Or The Big City Lights It Was A Family Thing Respect Your Name Then With That Fortune And Fame Go To Church Back to Work Dad Got Laid Off Because He's Hurt But He Hunted All Year So They're Not Hungry They Didn't Go Country I Didn't Go Country! I'm From the South I Didn't Start Wearing Boots When Garth Came Out I've Been Pig Picking, Frog Gigging, Raising My Own Chickens Four Wheeling, Rod and Reeling, Harvest Crops, Tomato Dealing Hunting With My Mudslinging Buddies, I Didn't Go Country 'Cause I Was Born Country If You Gotta Go Country Then You Ain't Country YEA
