I've heard a million country songs
|
'bout love gone wrong good times crazy women
|
and I've sung about tractors
|
trucks fast cars n small town living
|
n I'd love to hear a band that rocks
|
with words that make you stop
|
and think about family if you ask me
|
|
oughta be more songs about that old man
|
who worked hard all his life
|
then Wall Street broke his nest egg
|
now he cant afford to die
|
and more songs about forgiveness
|
n other things that i believe in like Jesus, and letting him back in class
|
oughta be more songs
|
oughta be more songs about that
|
|
I like me a good old cheating song in a honky tonk with cold beer and a buddy
|
and I like to sing just as I am with a congregation and a little church to come Sunday
|
and I love to dance a slow dance to a love song with my baby
|
and the lights down low
|
yeah but we all know
|
|
there oughta be more songs about
|
them angels volunteering at the mission
|
fixing food to the homeless and giving toys to needy children
|
and more songs about them soldiers whose war is never over who made it home but never quite came back
|
oughta be more songs
|
oughta be more songs 'bout that
|
|
oughta be more songs about us common folk
|
puttin' in 8 days a week
|
and burning both ends of the candle
|
just trying to make ends meet
|
and more songs about them singers
|
who picked this road im on,
|
some gone but not forgotten some still going strong
|
|
there's Waylon, Hank my daddy and the man in black
|
oughta be more songs about that.
|
|
more songs
|
more songs about that
|
|
more songs
|
more songs about that
|
