Country Blind

Copyright 2010 Robert J. Thompson, BMI

WELL, I WONDER WHAT THEY'RE DOING IN NASHVILLE
I WONDER IF THEY'RE LOOKIN’ FOR ME
I'M NOT YOUR AVERAGE COUNTRY SINGER
I’VE BEEN IN TRAINING SINCE THE AGE OF THREE
I THINK THEY’VE ALREADY MADE UP THEIR MIND
I THINK THEY’RE ALL GOING COUNTRY BLIND

I’VE PLAYED EVERY JUKE JOINT IN THIS GREAT LAND
AND THEY DON’T EVEN KNOW MY NAME
I DRIVE FROM TOWN TO TOWN BOTH NIGHT AND DAY
JUST SO I CAN STAY IN THE GAME
I’VE PAID MY DUES, I’VE DONE MY TIME
I THINK THEY’RE ALL GOING COUNTRY BLIND

THEY'RE ALL GOING COUNTRY BLIND
AND I'M A GOING OUT OF MY MIND
BRING BACK THE OLD MEMORIES
GIVE ME SOME CASH, GIVE ME WAYLON PLEASE
YOUR FANCY JUKEBOX HAS GOT TO GO
I WANT SOME HANK AND DAVID ALLAN COE
WELL, THIS NEW COUNTRY’S ALL I CAN FIND
I THINK THEY'RE ALL GOING COUNTRY BLIND

INSTRUMENTAL

WELL, I WONDER WHAT THEY’RE DOING IN AUSTIN
I WONDER IF THEY'RE LOOKIN’ FOR ME
I’M JUST ANOTHER FORGOTTEN SOLDIER
IN THE REAL COUNTRY INFANTRY
IT’S TIME TO GET BACK TO THE DAILY GRIND
I THINK THEY'RE ALL GOING COUNTRY BLIND

I’LL FOLLOW MY HEART TO MY DYING DAYS
WILL THEY EVER KNOW MY NAME?
MAYBE THEY’LL COME TO THEIR SENSES
WILL IT EVER BE THE SAME?
THIS GOOD OL’ BOY’S NOT THE QUITTIN’ KIND
I THINK THEY’RE ALL GOING COUNTRY BLIND

THEY'RE ALL GOING COUNTRY BLIND
AND I'M A GOING OUT OF MY MIND
BRING BACK THE OLD MEMORIES
GIVE ME SOME CASH, GIVE ME WAYLON PLEASE
YOUR FANCY JUKEBOX HAS GOT TO GO
I WANT SOME HANK AND DAVID ALLAN COE
WELL, THIS NEW COUNTRY’S ALL I CAN FIND
I THINK THEY'RE ALL GOING COUNTRY BLIND
YEAH, THIS NEW COUNTRY’S ALL I CAN FIND
I THINK THEY'RE ALL GOING COUNTRY BLIND
