SINGIN' A COUNTRY SONG
(Don Devaney)

Dick Curless - 1972


When I go out at night I know it won't be very long
Till I find a bar where the jukebox plays a country music song
I'll get a roll of quarters and pick out my favorite song
And I'll sit there drinkin' a beer, singin' along, singin' along with

Hey Mister Fiddle Man, strike up that fiddle band
And anything Hank Thompson sings, 'cause he's my number one man
And Jim Ed Brown reminds me time to Pop A Top again
Then Haggard sings about Carolyn, I wish I could sing like him
Then Jerry Lee and Bobby McGee, till that roll of quarters is gone
Drinkin' a beer, singin' a country song

(Instrumental Break)

When I stay home at night, I turn the record player on
I never watch the TV set unless Hee Haw is on
Well I get to hear Buck Owens and then Roy Clark sing a song
And I sit there drinkin' a beer, singin' along, singin' along with

Hey Mr Fiddle Man, strike up that fiddle band
And there's nothin' like old Charley Pride to bring a country song
alive
Then Jim Ed Brown reminds me time to Pop A Top again
And that lucky Conway Twitty gets to sing with Loretta Lynn
Then Jerry Lee and Bobby McGee and me singin' along
Drinkin' a beer, singin' a country song
Let's keep it country
Singin' a beer and drinkin' a country song
Ain't nothin' like it
Drinkin' a beer singin' a country song
