[HARDY - Here lies country music lyrics]
Well, here lies country music
Had a damn good run
It took it's last Nashville lap around
A "Ring of Fire" sun
Jack Daniel's in the front row
Right next to steel guitar
The headline said
The cause of death was a lonely broken heart
'Cause you can't cheat on the radio or
Be proud of where you're from
Trucks ran out of red dirt roads
And beer quit getting you drunk
Yeah, the thing about all good things is
They all come to an end
So here lies country music, rest
Easy, my old friend, yeah
It had a couple close calls with
Names that I won't mеntion
But it stayed strong with "Always On
My Mind" and "Family Tradition"
Helped pеople through some hard times
More times than you can count
So you hate to see three chords and
The truth six feet in the ground
'Cause you can't cheat on the radio or
Be proud of where you're from
Trucks ran out of red dirt roads
And beer quit getting you drunk
Yeah, the thing about all good things is
They all come to an end
So here lies country music, rest
Easy, my old friend, oh
I woke up in a cold sweat
To my alarm clock radio
A new song came on about a honky-tonk
Drunk heart that just got broke
And I said, "Thank you, Jesus
" that dream was all made up
And I pray that I leave this
World before country music does
When you can't cheat on the radio or
Be proud of where you're from
When trucks run out of red dirt roads
And beer quit's getting you drunk
Yeah, I'll tell you some crazy words
I never wanna say again
Here lies country music, rest easy
My old friend
Thank you, country music, amen
Had a damn good run
