I remember wearin´ straight leg Levis and flannel shirts Even when they weren´t in style I remember singin´ with Roy Rogers at the movies When the West was really wild
And I was listenin´ to the Opry When all of my friends were diggin´ Rock ´n Roll And Rhythm & Blues I was Country, when Country wasn´t cool
I remember circlin´ the drive-in, pullin´ up And turnin´ down George Jones I remember when no one was lookin´ I was puttin´ peanuts in my Coke I took a lot of kiddin´ ´Cause I never did fit in now look at everybody tryin´ to be what I was then I was Country, when Country wasn´t cool
Ooh Ooh I was Country, when Country wasn´t cool I was Country, from my hat down to my boots I still act, and look the same
What you see ain´t nothin´ new I was Country, when Country wasn´t cool
They called us country bumpkins For stickin´ to our roots I´m just glad we´re in a country Where we´re all free to choose I was Country, when Country wasn´t cool
Ooh Ooh I was Country, when Country wasn´t cool I was Country, from my hat down to my boots I still act, and look the same What you see ain´t nothin´ new I was Country, when Country wasn´t cool
(George Jones) Hey I Was Country, when Country wasn´t cool Yeah and I was Country, from my hat down to my boots
I still act, and look the same What you see ain´t nothin´ new Cause I Was Country when Country wasn´t cool
