I Was Country When Country Wasn't Pop

I remember hearing LeAnn Rimes

When she sang blue what sounded like Patsy Cline

And I love that group SheDaisy

But don't they sound a lot like Destiny's Child

Now Michael Bolton's on the Opry

And they've turned me down again

And man that really hurts me a lot

'Cause I was country when country wasn't pop

I remember 'He Stopped Loving Her Today'

Back when radio would play George Jones

You never hear Family Tradition

Or all of those killer songs Bocephus wrote

And I ain't heard twin fiddlin' since I don't know when

Now it's more like Britney Spears than it is Loretta Lynn

I was country when country wasn't pop

Yeah, I was country when country wasn't pop

Yeah, I was country way before Kid Rock

Now every act sounds the same this crossin' over's got to stop

Yeah, I was country when country wasn't pop

Well, they sound like Smashing Pumpkins in a pair of cowboy boots

They's about as country as Huey Lewis and the News

I was country when country wasn't pop

Yeah, I was country when country wasn't pop

I was country and I'm still proud of [Incomprehensible]

It's a shame, Shania Twain

Is mixin' rock and roll and funky hip hop

'Cause I was country when country wasn't pop

Yeah, I was country when Barbara Mandrell was really hot
