My First and Possibly Last Country Western Song

Country western songs are for the lonely and the sad
They drone on and on, and some are truly pretty bad.
If you have heard one, you have pretty much heard them all.
Most are about the good guy losing the pretty girl after all.

Oh, give me a country western wail and shrill twang
Where the moon dogs howl and the moon doth clang
Give me a cowboy with a belt buckle that flips and flops
Bore me to death until my bored heart stops

Country western music blah blah blah
The drummer can drum it with a rah rah rah
You can sleep through it for it is silly, lah dee dah
Country music blah blah blah

Country western songs are for the ones who like to drown
In their own mire and muck, human dogs from a pound
Country western gives me no personal happiness or delight.
I would rather listen to the news stations throughout my night.

Oh give me a country western truck that I can take mudding.
A motor I can ruin and make my dad pay for, McFudding.
Give me a rodeo, some chaps, a lasso and some worn boots.
Throw in a bull, cow, or horse, and send me down some hay chutes.

Country western music blah blah blah
The drummer can drum it with a rah rah rah
You can sleep through it for it is silly, lah dee dah
Country music blah blah blah

How I agree! I grew up on that crap in the hills of West Virginia where WOAY was our only station. Why would anyone listen to that stuff when there is so much good music to be listened to, with a beat, like something by The Supremes or even Billy Joel!

I have had a personal relationship with one of the Supremes for a number of years; the only thing is - only my husband knew she was a Supreme until I took her to church and she outsung the CHURCH!
