Kenny Jones (Country Knows Best)

This is a song 'bout an old country singer friend of mine

His name is Kenny Jones

He was a small town legend from Tennessee

He went in search of the big city with some dreams he was lookin' for

But things kind of got off track a bit

But of course you know he's always welcome back, right here to Tennessee

Kenny Jones grew up in a little Tennessee town

When he played the gee-tar and all the people gathered 'round

Been playin' country music since the day that Kenny was born

When he left his Tennessee town with these words to Kenny I did warn

This is what I said:

Who knows all, who knows best

Whether you're in the East, you're in the West

Go get your cowboy boots and your special vest

Cause country music knows the best

Kenny left the Grand Ol' Opry, lookin' for fortune and fame

Packed his bags off to Hollywood, tryin' to make himself a name

Bright lights, big city and Kenny's lookin' for a hit

Tryin' to make some money, but Kenny ain't makin' shit

Well he turned his back on Country, now Kenny's playin' rock and roll

Didn't look where he's going, and Kenny fell into a hole

City's like a railroad car then it went off track

Now he's coming home to Nashville, where Kenny's always welcome back

And this is what we say:

Who knows all, who knows best

Whether you're in the East, you're in the West

Go get your cowboy boots and your special vest

Cause country music knows.........
