Barbara Mandrell - I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool Lyrics
I Was Country When Country Wasn’t CoolI remember wearin’ straight leg LevisFlannel shirts even when they weren’t in styleI remember singing with Roy RogersAt the movies when the west was really wildAnd I was listening to the OpryWhen all of my friendsWere digging Rock n Roll and Rhythm and BluesI was country when country wasn’t coolI remember circling the drive-inPullin’ up and turnin’ down George JonesI remember when no one was lookingI was putting peanuts in my cokeI took a lot of kiddin’‘Cause I never did fit inNow look at everybody tryin’ to be what I was thenI was country when country wasn’t coolOh, I was country when Country wasn’t coolI was Country from my hat down to my bootsI still act and look the sameWhat you see ain’t nothing newI was Country when Country wasn’t coolThey call us country bumpkinsFor sticking to our rootsI’m just glad we’re in a countryWhere we’re all free to chooseI was Country when County wasn’t coolHey, I was Country when Country wasn’t coolYeah, and I was Country from my hat down to oh, my bootsI still act and look the sameWhat you see ain’t nothing newI was Country when Country wasn’t coolYeah, I was country when Country wasn’t cool
