I've heard a million country songs
'bout love gone wrong good times crazy women
and I've sung about tractors
trucks fast cars n small town living
n I'd love to hear a band that rocks
with words that make you stop
and think about family if you ask me
oughta be more songs about that old man
who worked hard all his life
then Wall Street broke his nest egg
now he cant afford to die
and more songs about forgiveness
n other things that i believe in like Jesus, and letting him back in class
oughta be more songs
oughta be more songs about that
I like me a good old cheating song in a honky tonk with cold beer and a buddy
and I like to sing just as I am with a congregation and a little church to come Sunday
and I love to dance a slow dance to a love song with my baby
and the lights down low
yeah but we all know
there oughta be more songs about
them angels volunteering at the mission
fixing food to the homeless and giving toys to needy children
and more songs about them soldiers whose war is never over who made it home but never quite came back
oughta be more songs
oughta be more songs 'bout that
oughta be more songs about us common folk
puttin' in 8 days a week
and burning both ends of the candle
just trying to make ends meet
and more songs about them singers
who picked this road im on
some gone but not forgotten some still going strong
there's Waylon, Hank my daddy and the man in black
oughta be more songs about that
more songs
more songs about that
more songs
more songs about that
