I like singing Merle, I love my Johnny Cash Son if that ain't country, you can kiss my Well I've got a lot of heroes that have helped me sing this way There ain't nothing like a little George Jones To help you through a cloudy day I like shooting whiskey, picking a honky-tonk bar Singing all their songs from the bottom of my heart Well I may never hit the big-time or pay my bills with this old guitar It's a long road to travel if you wanna be a country star I've had this dream since I was young about standing on that Opry stage Filling all of those stadiums, hearing that record man say my name Well I've had this fire down deep inside ever since I first heard that twang As long as I'm breathing air and there's a crowd out there I'm doing my country thing Give me that steel guitar, don't hold nothing back I'm shooting straight from the heart, there's no arguing with that sponsored links You may not hear it on your radio but I'm gonna play it loud Cause to me that's what country music's all about I've had this dream since I was young about standing on that Opry stage Filling all of those stadiums, hearing that record man say my name Well I've had this fire down deep inside ever since I first heard that twang As long as I'm breathing air and there's a crowd out there I'm doing my country thing I've had this fire down deep inside ever since I first heard that twang So as long as I'm breathing air and there's a crowd out there I'm doing my country thing
