Well I was raised on country classics
|
Like Roy Acuff and George Jones
|
Lord I loved to hear 'em
|
Sing all them old time country songs
|
But I really got excited 'bout the time I turned 15
|
That's the first time I heard Waylon and old Bocephus sing
|
They put some drive in their country that really turned me on
|
|
Yeah, put some drive in your country
|
Keep country drivin' on
|
When the music gets you movin'
|
You know that can't be wrong
|
Every time I hear that outlaw stuff on my car radio
|
It makes me wanna drive it just as fast as it will go
|
Put some drive in your country
|
Let's keep country drivin' on
|
|
We played some shows in Atlanta on Sunday afternoons
|
The gigs were packed and I was nervous
|
Cause I wanted folks to like my tunes
|
The crowds were full of younger people
|
They were all about my age
|
So I turned and told the band just before we walked on stage
|
Put some drive in your country fellas
|
We turned those people on
|
|
Yeah, put some drive in your country
|
Keep country drivin' on
|
When the music gets you dancin'
|
You know that can't be wrong
|
See I made myself a promise when I was just a kid
|
I'd mix southern rock and country and that's just what I did
|
Put some drive in your country
|
Keep country drivin' on
|
|
Put some drive in your country
|
Hey, let's keep country drivin' on
|
When the music gets you movin'
|
You know that can't be wrong
|
I still love old country
|
I ain't tryin' to put it down
|
Damn I miss Duanne Allman
|
I wish he was still around
|
Put some drive in the country
|
Keep country drivin' on
|
|
Put some drive in the country
|
Let's keep country drivin' on
|
