The 'F' Word

Well I've been hangin' out with my Rebel son Kid Rock

And I don't really like this stuff they call Hip Hop

But he's sure been good to me

And I'm still tryin' to make him see

In country music, you just can't say the F word

My son Shelton say he's been havin' a hard time

Yea he does great shows but he's just gotta speak his own mind

Well I wonder where that came from?

I guess he's a real son-of-gun.

Take the old man's advice, be nice, and lose the F word

No, no in country music you just can't say the F word

Oh we've come a long way but it's best if that one's not heard

Oh we've had some hells and damns

But we don't say "bitch" we say, "why yes ma'am."

Cause in country music you just don't use the F word

Today's hot new country, it sounds pretty good to me

But it's time for basics, our roots and some reality

You gotta scrape me off the ceiling

Mrs. Hawkins says it with feeling

But in country music you just can't say the F word

No, no in country music you just can't say the F word

Oh we've come a long way but it's best if that one's not heard

Oh we've had some hells and damns

But we don't say "bitch" we say, "why yes ma'am."

Cause in country music you just don't use the F word

Some of these guys say it 500 times

But in country music you don't use it one damn line

Oh in country music we don't say the F word
