No Country Music for Old Men
They told him to just fade away
- They told him to just fade away
- His time had past
- And all his kind would die
- But he remembers when Hank played the
- Opry high as a kite
- While Patsy Cline was out walking
- After midnight
- Well he saw the torch being passed
- From Lefty to Merle
- Now there's so called successors
- But it's hard to find a hero in this world
- There ain't no country music for old men
- All of the good ones have died
- Or just packed it in
- Now there's posers and losers
- And would be outlaws who
- Only know how to pretend
- But there ain't no country music
- For old men
- He was sitting on a bar stool
- The first time he heard Jolene
- A song by the prettiest angel
- He'd ever seen
- Back when Nashville was swingin'
- And making them deals
- While old Buck was out strolling
- The streets of Bakersfield
- There ain't no country music for old men
- All of the good ones have died
- Or just packed it in
- Now there's posers and losers
- And would be outlaws who
- Only know how to pretend
- But there ain't no country music
- For old men
- Loretta and Conway
- Jones and Tammy Wynette
- Songs about prisons
- And passion and whiskey
- That's as good as it's
- Ever gonna get yeah
- They call him nostalgic with
- A permanent case of the blues
- He just walks around wondering
- Who's gonna fill their shoes
- Lookin back on the great ones we've lost
- He says why so soon
- He shed an ocean of tears
- On the graves of Johnny and June
- There ain't no country music for old men
- All of the good ones have died
- Or just packed it in
- Now there's posers and losers
- And would be outlaws who
- Only know how to pretend
- But there ain't no country music
- For old men
- There ain't no country music for old men
