Barbara Mandrell - I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool Lyrics
I remember wearin' straight leg Levis
Flannel shirts even when they weren't in style
I remember singin' with Roy Rogers
At the movies when the West was really wild
When all of my friends
Were diggin' Rock 'n' Roll and Rhythm and 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'
Now look at everybody
Tryin' to be what I was then
I was country, when country wasn't cool
Ooh
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
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
Hey, I was country, when country wasn't cool
Yeah, I was country, from my hat down to, whoa my boots
I still act, and look the same
What you see ain't nothin' new
Yeah, I was country when country wasn't cool

Ive yet to hear Barbara Mandrell sing anything but pop music masquerading as Country..
James Gaul yeah the slide guitar gives it away
Why are you listening?
Is there a actual video of them singing live
Barbara mandrell, willie, don williams, george jones, merle. Id like to meet them all once. Just to hug them, and tell them how much they mean to me.
