This Is Country Music Lyrics

You're not supposed to say the word cancer in a song
And tellin' folks Jesus is the answer can rub 'em wrong
It ain't hip to sing about tractors, trucks, little towns and mama
Yeah that might be true
But this is country music and we do
Do you like to drink a cold one on the weekend and get a little loud
Do you wanna say I'm sorry or I love ya but you don't know how?
Do you wish somebody had the nerve to tell that stupid boss of yours
To shove it next time he yells at you?
Well, this is country music and we do

So turn it on, turn it up, and sing a long
This is real, this is your life in a song
Yeah, this is country music
Are you haunted by the echo of your mother on the phone
Cryin' as she tells you that your brother is not comin' home?
And if there's anyone that still has pride
And the memory of those that died defending the old red, white, and blue,
This is country music and we do

So turn it on, turn it up, and sing a long
This is real, this is your life in a song
Just like a road that takes you home
Yeah, this is right where you belong
This is country music
This is country music
He stopped lovin' her today
Hello darling
God bless the USA
Amarillo by morning
Stand by your man
Mama tried
Take me home
I walk the line
Country boy can survive
