I Hate Corporate Country

I Hate Corporate Country
Words & Music by: DeMoor ©2006 DeMoor Publishing BMI

Verse 1
Singers dressed like winos, not a barber left in town
Girls chewing tobacco, shop at Goodwill for a gown
Suits and silk ties making records, stars last for a year
I hate corporate country……….it’s poison to my ears

Verse 2
Betrayed by foreign owners……….buying Music Row
You can’t clock in and write a song, it comes up from your soul
Rock & Roll producers, looking down their corporate nose
I thank God for the Internet…..and satellite radio

Chorus
I hate corporate country, it’s poison to my ears
Long hair types, and media hype, and girls with tattooed rears
Take me back to the good old days, at the prom we snuck a beer
I hate corporate country, it’s poison to my ears

Verse 3
You can’t write songs on assembly lines, it’s all part of your life
Like having kids, and working hard, and fighting with your wife
The best part is, the making up……after you disagree
Country songs are full of tears, and heartaches, don’t you see?

(Repeat Chorus/tag)
