They Took the Country Out of Country © 2007 Teddie Cochran They took the country out of country They're playing it as rock and roll They put out to pasture Men like Haggard, Hank and Jones That puts me in an awkward position Cause now I don't have a home They took the country out of country They're playing it as rock and roll Last night I heard on the radio The most peculiar air It didn't have a steel guitar Or that sweet old fiddle charm The D J swore up and down It was the greatest hit in town I knew right then and there I was homeless bound They took the country out of country They're playing it as rock and roll They put out to pasture Men like Haggard, Hank and Jones That puts me in an awkward position Cause now I don't have a home They took the country out of country They're playing it as rock and roll Last night I played the county fair a bubbly atmosphere I'm hangin' round behind the stage To sound check my gear The M C took a holy vow It was the coolest gig in town I can't believe where I'm playing I'm giggin' on the merry-go-round They took the country out of country They're playing it as rock and roll They put out to pasture Men like Haggard, Hank and Jones That puts me in an awkward position Cause now I don't have a home They took the country out of country They re-cycled rock and roll We're tuning up our fiddles We're tuning up those strings I'll put the country back into country Let that old time country music sing
