Take This Country Back

They used to be rough and rowdy

And honky-tonk all night long

When the Opry spilled out in the alley

There wasn't nobody going home

When they turned out the lights at Tootsie's

And wind up at Cowboy Jack's

We've got to take this country back

We've got to take this country back

We need a few more matchin' Nudie suits

And silver dollar Cadillacs

There's one too many dime store cowboys

Muscled up in a cowboy hat

We've got to take this country back

Nobody wants to be Hank Williams

Sing about he lost highway

Well Saturday nights at the Ryman

Those were the good ole days

We need to turn the twang up a little

Bring back the Nashville Cats

We've got to take this country back

We've got to take this country back

We need a few more pointy toed cowboy boots

And steer horn Cadillacs

There's one too many dime store cowboys

Muscled up in a cowboy hat

We've got to take this country back

We've got to take this country back

We need a few more matchin' Nudie suits

And silver dollar Cadillacs

When we all gather up in Heaven

How we gonna face the man in black

We got to take this country back

When we all gather up in Heaven

How we gonna face the man in black

We got to take this country back
