'Cause you can't cheat on the radio
Or be proud of where you're from
Trucks ran out of red dirt roads
and beer quit getting you drunk
Yeah, the thing about all good things
is they all come to an en d
So here lies country music
Rest easy, my old friend, yeah
It had a couple close calls
With names that I won't mention
But it stayed strong with Al ways On My
Mind and Family Tradition
Helped people through some hard times
More times than you can count
So you hate to see three chords and the truth,
'Cause you can't cheat on the radio
Or be proud of where you're from
Trucks ran out of red dirt roads
and beer quit getting you drunk
Yeah, the thing about all good things
is they all come to an en d
So here lies country music
Rest easy, my old friend, oh
I woke up in a cold sweat
A new song came on about a honkytonk
drunk heart that just got broke
And I said, "Thank you, Jesus"
That dream was all made up
And I pray that I leave this world
before country music does
When you can't cheat on the radio
When trucks run out of red dirt roads
and beer quits getting you drunk
Yeah, I'll tell you some crazy words
And thank you, country music
