George Strait - Kicked Outta Country lyrics

[George Strait - Kicked Outta Country lyrics]

I just got the news today
The record I sent 'em, they threw it away
It don't fit the format, don't make the list
They say I'm too old, won't even be missed
It happened to Jones and even The Hag
Waylon and Willie and the great Johnny Cash
Kicked 'em right out without even a word
But that ain't the end of the story I heard

'Cause Cash stomped out the footlights
And Haggard plumb had a ball
Willie and Waylon and Kris toured the nation
And Jones never showed up at all
They lived what they wrote
And they wrote what they sang
And getting kicked outta country
Didn't hurt a thing
Getting kicked outta country
Didn't hurt a thing

I just wrote a new song today


Pulled out my old guitar and
I started to play
Pressing my fingers into the strings
I felt the feelings a country song brings

I did some Jones and one for The Hag
Waylon and Willie and the great Johnny Cash
They all got kicked outta country back then
But then one day country came calling again
And Cash stomped out the footlights
And Haggard plumb had a ball
And Willie and Waylon and
Kris toured the nation
And Jones showed up after all

They lived what they wrote
And they wrote what they sang
Getting kicked outta country
Didn't hurt a thing
Getting kicked outta country
Didn't hurt a thing
Well, it don't really matter
'Cause, I ain't gonna change
So getting kicked outta country
Won't hurt a thing
