Oh they say that country music's gone to town Hold your flocks and put on the cap and gown What's the country girl to do what's this world a comin' to Oh they say that country music's gone to town Now Grandpa used to take his dear old fiddle on his knee And Uncle Buck would git the banjo down Only music ever heard that could stop a mockin' bird Now they say that country music's gone to town Oh they say that country music's... One day I was walkin' through the canyons and the hills I came upon a cabin far away An old man with his banjo sat there a paddin' his big toe And as he played it I could hear his say Oh they say that country music's... Oh they say that country music's... Oh they say that country music's gone to town
