Now Playin' country music   it ain't like it used to be   I'm so tired of this new stuff   they're tryin' to get me to sing   That ain't no country music to me   Well, you can only take so much   of putting people down   when you got the best,   that's tryin' to beat your back doors down   Well, I used to think that country   was out of Nashville Tennessee   but all I see in Nashville,   is a bunch of backstabbers takin' you and me   They don't care about the music ya see   Well, I used to think that country   was out of Nashville, Tennessee   I'd rather take my things and   go back to Texas ya see   Now, I would pack up   and I'd leave this dirty town   but they've done taken me for so much   that I can't get out now   Maybe one day but not right now   Well, I used to think that country   was out of Nashville, Tennessee   I don't think that country's here   'cause they killed it ya see   Well, I used to think that country   was out of Nashville, Tennessee   I'd rather take my things and   go back to Texas ya see
