lyrics

I want no part of the new country
I wear the old country right on my sleeve
Give me an old backwater baptist revival
cause i want no part of that new country beat

Now i'm a believer in progress and fusion
I can mix anything into my hash
But i don't mix my Dylan in my Sinatra
Stop laying metal into Haggard and Cash

I want no part of the new country
I wear the old country right on my sleeve
Give me an old back porch sunshine recital
cause i want no part of that new country thing

Now I'm not offended by ways of seduction
I like me a little sugar in my tea
But clown painted hussies in high heels and leather
Don't make no honky- tonk angels to me

I want no part of the new country
I wear the old country right on my sleeve
Give me an old campfire nighttime rehearsal
cause i want no part of that new country scene

Now i like a fiddle I like steel string and banjo
If I need a rhythm I'll slap on my knee
What in the world are you banging so loud on?
You don't need a hammer to bring home the heat

I want no part of the new country
I wear the old country right on my sleeve
I'll take the high road you take the opry
cause i want no part of that new country beat
I want no part of the new country
