I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool - Live At The Roy Acuff Theater Nashville, TN, 1981

I remember wearin' straight leg Levis
 Flannel shirts even when they weren't in style
 I remember singin' with Roy Rogers
 At the movies when the west was really wild
 I was listenin' to the Opry
 When all of my friends
 Were diggin' rock 'n' roll and rhythm and blues
 I was country when country wasn't cool
 I remember circlin' the drive-in
 Pullin' up and turnin' down George Jones
 I remember when no one was lookin'
 I was puttin' peanuts in my Coke
 I took a lot of kiddin'
 'Cause I never did fit in
 Now look at everybody
 Tryin' to be what I was then
 I was country when country wasn't cool
 Ooh, I was country when country wasn't cool
 I was country, from my hat down to my boots
 I still act, and look the same
 What you see ain't nothin' new
 I was country when country wasn't cool
 ♪
 They call us country bumpkins
 For stickin' to our roots
 I'm just glad we're in a country
 Where we're all free to choose
 I was country (I was country) when country wasn't cool
 Hey, I was country when country wasn't cool
 Yeah, and I was country, from my hat down to, oh, my boots
 I still act, and look the same
 What you see ain't nothin' new
 'Cause I was country when country wasn't cool
 Yeah, I was country when country wasn't cool
