I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool [Live]

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 and 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 [Chorus:] 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 call 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 [Chorus:] Yeah, I was country when country wasn't cool
