Letra I Was Country When Country Wasn't Pop de Judd Cledus T original
I remember hearin' Leeann Rimes
When she sang 'Blue', it 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 (he was country) when country wasn't pop
I remember 'He Stopped Lovin' Her Today'
Back when radio would play George Jones
You never hear 'Family Tradition' or all those killer songs Bochephus 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 (he 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 crossing over's got to stop
Yeah, I was country (he was country) when country wasn't pop
Well, they sound like Smashing Pumpkins
In a pair of cowboy boots
They just 'bout as country as Huey Lewis and the News
I was country (he 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 that a lot
Well it's a shame Shania Twain is mixin' rock 'n' roll and funky hip hop
Cause I was country (he was country) when country wasn't pop
Yeah, I was country when Barbara Mandrell was really hot
