Tim McGraw - Damn Country Music Lyrics






I packed it all on a whim
Threw an old Hank cassette tape in
Dad's 84 rusty Ford
He swore we'd never make it
I quit my job, let my momma down
Broke an angel's heart on the way out of town
Pulled my roots from the ground

For the hum of wheels on the blacktop
The strum of strings on a flat top
It's a neon fever
For a small town dreamer
Tells you everything you have is worth losing
Damn country music

You might get lost in the lights
The things that keep you up all night
Whiskey straight at 3 AM
Chasing songs in your head
It's the sweetest highs, the lowest lows
It's needing yes, and hearing no
Just another soul sold
Believe me, I know

It's the hum of wheels on a blacktop
The strum of strings on a flat top
It'll take you, break you
Damn sure, make you
Do things, you never thought you'd be doing
Damn country music

When the money, the fame,
The lights on your name
All fade away
Well you'll still be a slave to...

The hum of wheels on a blacktop
The strum of strings on a flat top
It's a neon fever
For a small town dreamer
Tells you everything you have is worth losing
Damn country music

Damn country music

    I 💖 all tim and faith songs you rock tim mcgraw 🤗

  6. t.... ....

    This is one of those songs I wish I had written

  7. r.... ....

    This should be such a big hit, and for the life of me, I can not figure it out to this day why such a good country song is not bigger than this.. when Tim McGraw first came out I loved his music and still do. Now I thought his voice was to weak for country radio to keep playing him for years, but to my pleasant surprise, they did keep playing him.. and by albums 3 and 4 I changed my mind about his voice, because I walked into a record store one day and they where playing his newest album, and the song ‘can’t be really gone ‘ played and I asked the guys working who and what album was playing.. when they told me it was Tim’s latest album, I was blown away by it.. and said to my self he would be a huge hit maker in country music sadly today, he and faith do not get credit deserved by modern radio obsessed with fla ga. Line, and the Taylor stations.. so I want to say here and now.. “thank you Tim, and Faith, for still making real country music with no fear of being a hit or not, and staying “where the green grass grows “

    This guy just keeps getting better and better. Great follow up hit to "Diamond Rings and Old Bar Stools". Ain't no George Strait gonna save your country soul no more but this guy comes pretty close. Keep 'em comin' Tim!

  57. C.... ....

    This song needs more hits, normally I don't care much for newer stuff unless it's Red Dirt, Outlaw or Southern Rock but sounds like ol' Tim actually made a country song this time and hopefully he sticks to it.

  61. H.... ....

    The only thing I hate about this video, is that the men are all sombre, and the women look like dipshit fans girls. Love the song though
