CHORUS:
Y’all they’ve closed down the honky tonks
And now my world ain’t turning
The jukebox ran out of change
And the neon lights ain’t buzzing
There ain’t nothin’ sadder
Than covering Haggard
And nobody singing along
Y’all they’ve closed down the honky tonks

MANY years ago, at a state fair in Callifornia, Miranda Lambert was the free entertainment that nobody ever heard of. She played on a rickety old platform next to the food court. My husband and I were taking a break and enjoying some good ole' fair food when she started to sing. My husband and I both looked at each other and I said, "Remember this moment because we're gonna be able to say that we saw her right here..best seat in the house, for free."... and here I am sayin' that.

My girl does it again. Way to go Miranda. You are the only country artist that sings with that "old country" vibe.

[@melissamiddleton2135]

I love her voice. I don't listen to a lot of country music but I like every song from her. She has a genuine and gorgeous voice.

[@JasonBrockwell25]

Bless her heart. I like it when she sings "It ain't nothin' sadder than covering Haggard, and no one else sings along". She's referencing Merle Haggard, one of the legends in real country music. Unfortunately, he passed back in 2016. This girl knows her sh**. Miranda Lambert is also a legend in country music...not one of these pop princesses or R&B singers that's being labeled as country nowadays. She sings about what people can relate to.
