Hall, Tom T. - Country Is Lyrics

Country is - electing country clubbing Republicans who export your jobs and ruin your lives for 40 years, and then blaming liberals who were telling you to keep supporting unions. Country is - electing a NY con man insider for Wall St and thinking he's a revolutionary. Country is being a sucker for the elites.

Country is - having one of the greatest music styles in history, and then turning it into easy listening rock bullshit.

What a great song.Tom T Hall is one of the great story tellers of music.So gentle and eloquent in his lyrics and vocal style.Wish there was more Tom T and a lot less of the screaming singers of today.

Country is Tom T Hall.

A classic,both he and the song.So easy on your soul....

Is this why I pushed a disabled mans broken motorized scooter down the street today until I puked?

I'm here because of the new Ken Burns PBS documentary "Country Music", and yes!, COUNTRY IS when even a ghetto kid from East Oakland can love this music as well!

No doubt, no doubt, appreciate you listening

TOM T. HALL...COUNTRY IS= " YOU!"..LOVE YA!

this is such a gangster song. its 2019 im 26 years old.

Country is t t hall oldie hit 🌸❣️🌸

When country music was just that.

i love this song

Dammit, I can't make it thru this song without tearing up...about a world that we all long for & unfortunately it's rarely found these days.

This song always brings happy tears to my eyes because - let's face it, folks - it could absolutely not have been stated any better than this.

Yes, it does the same to me Every time I play it. Same thing with another great song of his, "Old Dogs & Children & Watermelon Wine."

amen Big E

not a fan of all that bro country, this is country music. SUP

Tom T taught me so much through His music, I just can't say.....

this song went to #1 on the country charts in 1974!!!

appreciate it Daniel

Country is all in your heart🎶🎶🎶🎶❤

Hope you have a Great Christmas Jack

hope you do as well

country is :)

I listen to this everyday. Its my happy place. Thankyou for posting

you're very welcome , appreciate you listening

Tom T Hall the Storyteller you would think the songs that he sung was taken from history or from real life the songs have great meaning and I enjoy listening to the great Tom T Hall I grew up listening to him as a young man and still listen to him today on YouTube

Tracy Humes - I was raised in the country. I can relate. It IS history and real life. His songs take me back to a beautiful time.!

As good a code to live one's life by as any I've come across...

love this song

Mikey, me too!!😊

He nailed this one....as usual....

Oh, so, true!

Thanks Tom T for telling it like it is

Great song and beautiful voice. Love it. Thank you

Idk what i would do without Tom T. i get the chills when i hear his music.

Great song. I remember when it was being played on the radio. I wish I could find the original version though. There is another verse that had the line "country is, rolling your own smokes". That has been edited out since its not "proper" to mention smoking any more. I don't smoke but I hate it when the politically correct stuff ruins a good song.

OMG!!!!!!! I am the EXACT same!! I hate that so much! Why just why do they HAVE to do that. It's stupid in my opinion.

What a great song. In juxtaposition against a lot of todays music this song is honest and good.

you said it buddy....right on.....

Absolutely!!

Nice song.

"Country Is"....Tom T. Hall...a true "country" voice....as clear as running water in a gentle, rock-strewn stream...makes you put the sound of traffic, here in a big city..to the background....and focus on this gentle song....while appreciating the tweeting of sparrows in the trees which you are blessed with, outside your window...yes, Country IS "all in your mind," -- everywhere..

Artists like Mr.Hall left a calming legacy, music in song...the universal language...Enjoy!!

Country Is -- A clean, clear song to relax by, even in a big city! Love Tom T.

@Angie Simmons thank you for listening, i appreciate it very much

Good Kentucky Boy! I wish someone could write a few like this one again but I'm grateful that someone wrote it once.

@Big E very true

Very very true! I couldn't have put it better myself. But it's sad we have to say it😟. Music now will never be the same ever again

There are many talented country musicians, such as Andrew Combs. They are just not played on the radio.

mrbobevans, ok but he's young... all classic country songs either tell a story, or like this one it's just a good ole country song!! Now all of these new "country" songs just talk about love and how they pretty much failed at life😂. It's faster paced, the lyrics are bad, it never tells a story. Example Phantom 309. New junk is just not as good in my opinion. Life back in the 50's and 60's was simpler and just better than now. Now I'm not saying that this Andrew guy doesn't have any tallent. I'm just saying that his music is much much different than music back then. Music has changed. Forever. These new so called "country" singers, don't talk about life in the 50's and 60's. Yes it is a different time and I should probably move on, but I won't. Music then, in my opinion, will ALWAYS be better than new "country" junk. I'd do anything to live back in the day! But maybe I shouldn't be so quick to judge.

@J.W. Gauntt yes very true

Kedves Jack nagyon tetszett a dal, a zenéje fantasztikus,
az énekes is nagyon jó volt.
Köszönettel Klára Szépvölgyi

you're very welcome Clare, glad you enjoyed it
