George Jones
I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool

(Written by K. Fleming & D. Morgan)
Barbara Mandrell & George Jones
Album: Ultimate Collection: Barbara Mandrell 2001

(Barbara)
I remember wearin' straight leg Levis and flannel shirts
Even when they weren't in style
I remember singin' with Roy Rogers at the movies
When the West was really wild
And I was listenin' to the Opry
When all of my friends were diggin'
Rock 'n Roll and Rhythm & Blues
I was country, when country wasn't cool.

I remember circlin' the drive-in, pullin' up
And turnin' down George Jones
I remember when no one was lookin'
I was puttin' peanuts in my Coke
I took a lot of kiddin'
'Cause I never did fit in
now look at everybody tryin' to be what I was then
I was country, when country wasn't cool.

Chorus:
I was country, when country wasn't cool
I was Country, from my hat down to my boots
I still act, and look the same
What you see ain't nothin' new
I was country, when country wasn't cool.

--- Instrumental ---

They call us country bumpkins
For stickin' to our roots
I'm just glad we're in a country
Where we're all free to choose
I was country, when country wasn't cool.

Chorus: (George)
Hey, I was country, when country wasn't cool
Yes, I was Country, from my hat down to my boots
(Both)
I still act, and look the same
What you see ain't nothin' new
I was country, when country wasn't cool.

Yeah, I was Country when Country wasn't cool.


Mirror lyrics:

Yeah, I was Country when Country wasn't cool.

I was country, when country wasn't cool.
What you see ain't nothin' new
I still act, and look the same
(Both)
Yes, I was Country, from my hat down to my boots
Hey, I was country, when country wasn't cool
Chorus: (George)

I was country, when country wasn't cool.
Where we're all free to choose
I'm just glad we're in a country
For stickin' to our roots
They call us country bumpkins

--- Instrumental ---

I was country, when country wasn't cool.
What you see ain't nothin' new
I still act, and look the same
I was Country, from my hat down to my boots
I was country, when country wasn't cool
Chorus:

I was country, when country wasn't cool.
now look at everybody tryin' to be what I was then
'Cause I never did fit in
I took a lot of kiddin'
I was puttin' peanuts in my Coke
I remember when no one was lookin'
And turnin' down George Jones
I remember circlin' the drive-in, pullin' up

I was country, when country wasn't cool.
Rock 'n Roll and Rhythm & Blues
When all of my friends were diggin'

I remember singin' with Roy Rogers at the movies
