Chorus:
EI like country when it rocks
EI like country when it's Areal
AWhen it's sung for the Eschool of the hardest knocks
EAnd not for mass apB7peal
B7I like country when it's Eloud
EAnd ringing out for Ablocks
AI like country when it's Ereal
B7I like country when it Erocks
verse 1
EPlay a little Johnny ACash for me
AAnd make me feel it down Ehome
EWhen old Waylon's on the [B7backbeat] honey
[B7He] sounds better than the EStones
ESomebody help me make it Athrough the night
AI'm seeing double through Ethe neon light
EPlay it loud and play it [B7right]
[B7All] night I don't wanna go Ehome
Chorus
verse 2
Little something with a twang to it
Like they used to do
The kind of song that kept glued to it
Because you knew it was true
I like the sound of a steel guitar
I like the feel of a roadside bar
I only listen to the country stars
Who know what I go through
Chorus 3x
