Sorry to Hear It

[Verse 1]
Country music's gone down the drain
No steel guitar on these airwaves
Nobody's playing what I like in three quarter time
What'd you do with Cash and Hank?

[Verse 2]
I'd sell my soul to hear some twang
Nobody's got a fiddle on their stage
Used to be about the music, how'd we lose it?
What would Haggard have to say?

[Chorus]
I miss singing what you think
And feeling what you sing in every song
Playing on real strings, those simple melodies
Where did we go wrong?

[Post-Chorus]
It ain't broke so when did we decide we can't live with it?
Country music was doing fine before we tried to fix it
The radio don’t got that old time spirit
I'm sorry to hear it

[Verse 3]
Backroads, beers, and broken hearts
Fill in the blanks and you're a star
Add a mullet to the mix and line up a couple chicks
Learn two chords on your guitar

[Chorus]
I'm miss singing what you think
And feeling what you sing in every song
Playing on real strings, those simple melodies
Where did we go wrong?

[Post-Chorus]
It ain't broke so when did we decide we can't live with it?
Country music was doing fine before we tried to fix it
The radio don’t got that old time spirit
I'm sorry to hear it

[Instrumental Break]

[Post-Chorus]
It ain't broke so when did we decide we can't live with it?
Country music was doing fine before we tried to fix it
The radio ain’t got that old time spirit
I'm sorry to hear it

[Outro]
Oh, radio ain't got that old time spirit
I'm sorry to hear it
