I Was Country...

when Country wasn't Cool.

Yeah I was Country,
from my hat down to my boots.
They call us Country Bumpkins,
for sticking to our Roots...

I'm just glad we're in a country
where we're still free to choose.

Hey I was Country,
when Country wasn't Cool.

I still look, and act the same.
What you see ain't nothing new...
I was Country.

Roll on Mississippi
Sleeping Single in a Double Bed

I Wouldn't Have Missed It for the World

ADDED: I took a lot of kiddin', 'cause I never did fit in.
Now look at everybody: tryin' to be what I was then (pronounced thyn -- y takes a soft i sound...)
