LYRICS:
Well here lies country music
Had a damn good run
It took its last Nashville lap around a Ring of Fire sun
Jack Daniel’s in the front row
Right next to steel guitar
The headline said, the cause of death was a lonely broken heart
‘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 end
So here lies country music
Rest easy, my old friend
It had a couple close calls
With names I won’t mention
But it stayed strong with Always 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, six feet in the ground
‘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 end
So here lies country music
Rest easy, my old friend oh
I woke up in a cold sweat
To my alarm clock radio
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 earth before country music does
When you can’t cheat on the radio
Or be proud of where you’re from
When trucks run out of red dirt roads and beer quits getting you drunk
Yeah I’ll tell you some crazy words I never wanna say again
Here lies country music
Rest easy, my old friend
Thank you, country music
A-men

Ok I've been a country music fan ALL my life (41 years). Country music doesn't die, it evolves. It's changing fast. We went from Hank Sr.,to Loretta Lynn, to people like Willie, Waylon and Merle..... My point is it's changed and is still changing, I don't always agree on what some people label as country music but it's a preference. We are in a new era, but it'll never die.

This song hits hard these days. Imagine the visuals on this if it were to happen. Front row Willie, Dolly, Kris and son on. Just hard thoughts to have that sometimes as they fade back and forth from satire to reality. This country is as strong as its country music. Yep, she's worth it.

[@davidsequeira1771]

Wow. This country needs more lyrics like these

[@dcinsc7]

Country music never dies; it just evolves, runs from one extreme to the other extreme , and eventually finds it way back to where it all began - listen to some Charley Crockett and you’ll see what I mean. It’s artists like HARDY, The Cadillac Three, Cody Jinks that push the boundaries of country music, and as a former metal head from the 80s, I love the fusion!
