From the recording Bel Esprit
Lyrics
I was born in the city, but I love a country song
Three chords, sad words, and easy to sing along to
That's all you need if you want to be a country song
I've been drinkin' since the darkness turned back into the dawn
Sippin' on my whiskey and strummin' my guitar
That's all you need if you want to be a country song
Never had a pickup truck, never had a farm.
Never had a cowboy hat or the boots to go along
Just a love of my country and an achin' in my heart
Three chords, sad words, that's where you've gotta start
I was born in the city, but I love a country song
Three chords, sad words, and easy to sing along to
That's all you need if you want to be a country song
That's all you need if you want to be a country song
That's all you need if you want to be a country song
