I'm a ghost on the radio
A needle on the vinyl
A country boy survival
The bottom of a bottle, yeah
I’m the fightin' side of you and me
And my heart's down in Tennessee
[Chorus]
And I sing songs about freight trains and prisons
Heartaches and honky-tonks
Cowboys and outlaws
Good-hearted women
In boots and straw hats
All gone, just like that
They can’t even recognize me
They used to call me Country
[Verse 2]
Used to have cool names like Willie and Waylon
Merle and Hank
We all stood together
We sang and we drank
Chased the white lines
Night after night
[Chorus]
Singin' songs about freight trains and prisons
Heartaches and honky-tonks
And cowboys and outlaws
Good-hearted women
In boots and straw hats
All gone, just like that
They can't even recognize me
They used to call me Country
[Verse 3]
Like an old violin
Put away and never played again
Paycheck and Cash
Naw, they ain't comin' back
[Chorus]
They did songs about freight trains and prisons
Heartaches and honky-tonks
Cowboys and outlaws
Good-hearted women
In boots and straw hats
All gone, just like that
They can't even recognize me
They used to call me Country
[Outro]
They used to call me Country
I'm a thing of the past
I'm a ghost on the radio
[Verse 1] I'm a ghost on the radio A needle on the vinyl A country boy survival The bottom of a bottle, yeah I’m the fightin' side of you and me And my heart's down in Tennessee [Chorus] And I sing songs about freight trains and prisons Heartaches and honky-tonks Cowboys and outlaws Good-hearted women In boots and straw hats All gone, just like that They can’t even recognize me They used to call me Country [Verse 2] Used to have cool names like Willie and Waylon Merle and Hank We all stood together We sang and we drank Chased the white lines Night after night [Chorus] Singin' songs about freight trains and prisons Heartaches and honky-tonks And cowboys and outlaws Good-hearted women In boots and straw hats All gone, just like that They can't even recognize me They used to call me Country [Verse 3] Like an old violin Put away and never played again Paycheck and Cash Naw, they ain't comin' back [Chorus] They did songs about freight trains and prisons Heartaches and honky-tonks Cowboys and outlaws Good-hearted women In boots and straw hats All gone, just like that They can't even recognize me They used to call me Country [Outro] They used to call me Country I'm a thing of the past I'm a ghost on the radio Explain Request ×
