I was born and raised on country music The kind that grows inside your bones I've been fried by spot lights and wine Picking up and having some good time Now that I've grown somewhat older And all the good times have gone bad And I've played it all from rock to soul Country is the heart that beats in me I believe in good old country music Where everyone can clap and sing along You can have the city lights and I'll take the moon Bet 'cha that I'm happier than you I believe in good old country music Where everyone can clap and sing along You can have the city lights and I'll take the moon Bet 'cha that I'm happier than you I can play a new screaming electric guitar Turn 'em up and play them solo songs But just give me a big string flattop And I'll sing and play for you all day long Throw me in a good old country bass line Add a little shuffle on them drums Play for me some down home mean country leads And we'll have ourselves one heck of a time I believe in good old country music Where everyone can clap and sing along You can have the city lights and I'll take the moon Bet 'cha that I'm happier than you I believe in good old country music Where everyone can clap and sing along You can have the city lights and I'll take the moon Bet 'cha that I'm happier than you
