作词：Dennis W. Morgan/Kye Rhonda Fleming

作曲：Dennis W. Morgan/Kye Rhonda Fleming

I remember wearin' straight leg Levis

Flannel shirts Even

when they weren't in style

I remember singin' with Roy Rogers

At the movies

when the West was really wild

And I was listenin' to the Opry

When all of my friends

Were diggin' Rock 'n

Roll and RhythmBlues

I was Country

when Country wasn't cool

I remember circlin' the drive-in

Pullin' up and turnin' down

George Jones

I remember when no one was lookin'

I was puttin' peanuts in my Coke

I took a lot of kiddin'

'Cause I never did fit in

Now look at everybody

Tryin' to be what I was then

I was Country

when Country wasn't cool

Oooh

I was Country

when Country wasn't cool

I was Country

from my hat down to my boots

I still act and look the same

What you see ain't nothin' new

I was Country when Country wasn't cool

They call us country bumpkins

For stickin' to our roots

I'm just glad we're in a country

Where we're all free to choose

I was Country when Country wasn't cool

Hey I was Country

when Country wasn't cool

Yeah I was country

from my hat down to Whoa my boots

I still act and look the same

What you see ain't nothin' new

I was Country

when Country wasn't cool

Yeah I was country

when Country wasn't cool
