Lyrics

VERSE 1
Well the way I am, I'm so lonesome I could cry
there's a tear in my beer, she's always on my mind
well, hello darlin, i'll take a six-pack to go
just between you and me, i feel like an old chunk of coal

i've been a walkin the floor, though i walked the line
and i took the grand tour of apartment number 9
through them swinging doors, there stands the glass
and man if that aint country, i'm johnny cash

CHORUS
I like them old songs, them never do you wrong songs
I like them good uns we all grew up on
I can?t help it if the [poster boys/hip-hop beats] don?t turn me on
I like them old school, good ol country songs

VERSE 2
i'm a truck drivin man with six days on the road
but on an L.A. freeway, nobody's going to san antone
by the time i get to phoenix, she'll be gentle on my mind
i aint a rhinestone cowboy, no, i'm the running kind

CHORUS
MODULATE TO A FOR ALT-CHORUS

ALT-CHORUS
I like them old songs, somebody done somebody wrong songs
I turn em up real loud, drink a beer and sing along
there's nothing better than a front porch full of friends and barbecue--
with the radio on
I like them old school good ol country songs
