Lee Kernaghan - Country's Really Big These Days lyrics
[Lee Kernaghan - Country's Really Big These Days lyrics]
It was back in '36 when
Country music came to town
Tex had wrote a few songs and he'd
Come to put his music down
Regal Zonophone cut those early 78s
And the man said on the wireless
"country's really big these days"
Well we heard him sing about where
The white faced cattle roam
And Australia came to see the
Buddy Williams Travelling Show
And then Slim hit the road
Soon became a household name
They were saying back then
"Country's really big these days"
(yeah) Break out the fiddle, rosin up the bow
Like they did back then on
Those old time country shows
'Cause we remember our roots and the
Pioneers who paved the way
Now everybody's saying
"Country's really big these days"
Well there's been a lot of
Changes in the music industry
We're on compact discs now, country's on MTV
Old Tex and Buddy wish they were around today
'Cause everybody's saying
"Country's really big these days"
(yeah) Break out the fiddle, rosin up the bow
Like they did back then on
Those old time country shows
'Cause we remember our roots and the
Pioneers who paved the way
That's why everybody's saying
"Country's really big these days"
Yeah from Perth to Goondiwindi
Country's really big these days
Yeah from Cairns down to Burnie
Country's really big these days
Country music came to town
Tex had wrote a few songs and he'd
Come to put his music down
Regal Zonophone cut those early 78s
And the man said on the wireless
"country's really big these days"
Well we heard him sing about where
The white faced cattle roam
And Australia came to see the
Buddy Williams Travelling Show
And then Slim hit the road
Soon became a household name
They were saying back then
"Country's really big these days"
(yeah) Break out the fiddle, rosin up the bow
Like they did back then on
Those old time country shows
'Cause we remember our roots and the
Pioneers who paved the way
Now everybody's saying
"Country's really big these days"
Well there's been a lot of
Changes in the music industry
We're on compact discs now, country's on MTV
Old Tex and Buddy wish they were around today
'Cause everybody's saying
"Country's really big these days"
(yeah) Break out the fiddle, rosin up the bow
Like they did back then on
Those old time country shows
'Cause we remember our roots and the
Pioneers who paved the way
That's why everybody's saying
"Country's really big these days"
Yeah from Perth to Goondiwindi
Country's really big these days
Yeah from Cairns down to Burnie
Country's really big these days
