God's Country

Frank Sinatra

Xmas with Sinatra and Friends

2008

And I got the song of the robin
And I got a roof in the sky
Wonder why my heart keeps a throbbing, a throbbing
A son of God's country am I

And I got

in the country
Back to the days
When we were bumping hank
Rolling down forty eight
Tryna break that radio
Screaming every song
She's singing along
With

songs
But that is where, my friend, you're wrong
It's all like some trophy to be won
So the country music family's a joke
It's like some not-so-funny

tonkin'
Sad ass country song

Yeah, if heartbreak had a hall of fame
Then you'd damn straight they'd remember my name
I wish Whitley and Willie

cry, by my side.
I wrote a song about a man
who’s cheating, and one about a playing wife.
I wrote a song about dying,
and one about a useless life.

You Never Even Call Me by My Name

Steve Goodman

No Big Surprise: Anthology

1994

called me by my name

Well, a friend of mine named Steve Goodman wrote that song
And he told me it was the perfect country and western song
I wrote him

never end
Like an old country song
Like an old country song
Now we know where we've been and we're going
Didn't know how much I wanted this
You said this

on strong
But what you got here ain't no good country song
I got ordinary working people gettin' it done
Payday on a Friday and some weekend fun
Walking by

the words by heart
It's comin' from my heart
To the heart of the country
You know there's nothin' I'd
Rather do for you than sing you this song

It's comin'

loud
Cause the music plays all, night, long
All of my favorites in one long song
There's Horton and Houston, Jones and Jerry Lee
Play those country

Country is my bible, the scripture of the south
It's that right or wrong in a country song ,I'm singing in my house
Next to my neighbor, who drinks

that we've been there before
So long to the old country songs
I'll remember you well
And hold on to the sound
Of music made by the soul
 
No fake worn

where a new idea or an
old one in new form, is accepted by a minority,
while the majority is shouting treason,
rubbish, cook, communist, anarchist,

It's What I Am

John Michael Montgomery

John Michael Montgomery

1995

I'm the real thing and I sing songs about real life

And I never heard a fiddle called a violin
Never really worried if I fit in
Country ain't what

name

Well, a friend of mine named Steve Goodman wrote that song
And he told me it was the perfect country & western song
I wrote him back a letter and I

eyes you ain't from the city
Girl
Show me your country
The way you lit up when the DJ put on that George Strait song
You didn't get one word wrong

The Ballad of the Hulk

Jerry Jeff Walker

Mr. Bojangles

1968

your country needs some killing done
Go do it now boy"

The war itself is bad enough,
It can break you down no matter how tough
But the tragedy of all

kiss
Bikini hips
Fire up our brand new song
Ask the girls
What they wanna hear and
They shout play me
Some hard core country
Turn it up nice and loud
All

Life is better in your country song
We're miles and miles from the storm
If you can be the man
I can be that girl
In your country song

A jukebox never

pretend
American Requiem
Them big ideas (yeah) are buried here (yeah)
Amen

It's a lot of talkin' goin' on
While I sing my song
Can you hear me?
I

Horseback riding and a silver spur
Riding under stars and a man on the moon
Whistling a song 'bout love back home
This is my Country - that's what I

Coats of the season
And surrounded by his whole Odd Future crew
The ascendant singer opens up to
Amy Wallace about his crazy
Year including the bomb

was my song
Somewhere in the middle there
Though it started badly and it's ending wrong

This was my country
This frightful and this angry land
