This is country music!?!

I love this song by Brad Paisley...it is so true - it really says what REAL country music is all about!?!
You really need to give this song a listen...if you haven't already done so!?!



Here are the lyrics:

Well, you're not suppose
To say the word "cancer"
In a song.
And tellin' folks that Jesus is the answer
Can rub 'em wrong.
It ain't hip to sing about
Tractors, trucks, little towns or mama.
Yeah, that might be true.
But this is country music,
And we do.

Do you like to drink a cold one
On the weekends,
And get a little loud?
Do you wanna say, "I'm sorry"
Or, "I love you",
But you don't know how?
And do you wish somebody
Had the nerve
To tell that stupid boss a yours
To shove it,
Next time he yells at you?
Well, this is country music,
And we do.

So turn it on,
And turn it up.
And sing along.
This is real.
This is your life
In a song.
Yeah, this is country music.

Are you haunted by the eco
Of your mother
On the phone;
Cryin' as she tells you
That your brother
Is not comin' home?
Well, if there's anyone that still has pride
In the memory of those
That died defending
The ol' red, white and blue,
This is country music,
And we do.

So turn it on,
And turn it up.
And sing along.
This is real.
This is your life
In a song.

Just like a road that takes you home.
Yeah, this is right where you belong.
This is country music.

This is country music.

"He Stopped Loving Her Today"
