Marty Stuart - Let There Be Country lyrics

Written by Marty Stuart There are some misconceptions about where I'm a comin' from Rhinestones and a hairdo, but have you all heard my songs I'm an overnight sensation, I guess the joke's on me Breakin' new ground for the future, meanwhile Let there be country I come from Mississippi, now what's countrier than that Hit the ground a runnin' thanks to Lester Flatt Now the old man had a saying about the way things oughta be Boy, as long as you breathe Let there be country And there ain't nothin' I like better than my Hot Hillbilly Band Travelin' cross the country shaking hard working hands Paying up our dues, we don't want it if it's free Just let the music play and Let there be country There finally comes a time you've got to pa** the music on Changing of the guard and the new blood keeps it strong Well, I love the masters who gave advise to me They gave me mountains to move, meanwhile Let there be country And there ain't nothin' I like better than my Hot Hillbilly Band Travelin' cross the country shaking hard working hands Paying up our dues, we don't want it if it's free Just let the music play and Let there be country Let there be country
