This Is Country Music

Songwriters: Chris Du Bois;Brad Paisley

You're not supposed to say

The word cancer in a song

And tellin' folks Jesus is the answer

Can rub 'em wrong

It ain't hip to sing about tractors, trucks

Little towns and mama

Yeah that might be true

But this is country music and we do

Well, you like to drink a cold one

On the weekend and get a little loud

Do you wanna say I'm sorry or I love ya

But you don't know how?

Do you wish somebody had the nerve

To tell that stupid boss of yours

To shove it next time he yells at you?

Well, this is country music, and we do

So turn it on, turn it up and sing along

This is real, this is your life in a song

Yeah this is country music

Are you haunted by the echo of your mother

On the phone?

Cryin' as she tells you that

Your brother is not coming home?

And if there's anyone that still

Has pride and the memory of those

That died defending the old red, white and blue

This is country music and we do

So turn it on, turn it up and sing along

This is real, this is your life in a song

Just like a road that takes you home

Yeah this is right where you belong

This is country music
