Country music singers are an exclusive family
But if you got the looks and you got the hooks you can make the big money
I once knew a boy from Illinois, he had a twinkle in his arts
They put a pick and an axe in his hand, yeah, they sent him scaling up the charts
Say a prayer, cut your hair, keep your body lean
Hide your cards, don't think too hard, they just might buy your dream
Shake these hands but don't shake those or you'll be dead before you start
Most of all it's about the song if you wanna climb the charts
She had a skirlish voice and a whorlish point of view
She saw her name in lights so bright they burned a hole right through
And when she leapt into the void and rose from the debris
She shone like a diamond, mined from ore, chopped up and hocked to Bourgeoisie
Get in gear, your teenage years are soaked in kerosene
Aretha big or Shakira small, no sloppy in-betweens
Shake these hands but don't shake those or you'll be dead before you start
Most of all it's about the song if you wanna climb the charts
Welcome to the institution, publishing and distribution
Management needs sanction for your papers of circumlocution
Now begins the incubation, one-dimensionalization
For populist adoration
One-two-three-four new sensations
How many notes before litigation? Ooo
Tim McGraw called, he wants to cut your latest called
"Whiskey, Beer, and Chicken Coops for America and All Her Troops"
We paid the radio with eightballs and steak dinners
So they'll keep spinning the record till the new Aldean release outbids us
(Oh Tim McGraw, come cut my song, make me a star)
Shake these hands but don't shake those or you'll be dead before you start
Most of all it's about the song
If you wanna climb the charts
If you wanna climb the charts
If you wanna climb the charts
