The Night They Killed Country Music - The Bellamy Brothers

Well, the bull was buckin' hard

And the scene was so bizarre

As a busload of tourists wandered in

They’d never seen a wrench

And most of them spoke French

And they all got up to see if they could dance

And up there on the stage

A band called Prairie Sage

Was tryin' to keep the old ways alive

But the urbans, they wouldn’t listen

Well, they bought t-shirts and went pissin'

Off all the locals for comin' to this dive

And I was there the night they killed country music

I was sittin' on a barstool cryin' in my beer

I was there the night they killed country music

In one evenin', they destroyed the last fifty years

Well, they all wore Calvin Klein’s

The, tied behinds

The little golden on the chain

As I sat there on the back row

Tryin' to hear the dobro

I swear I heard one old-timer sang

Hear him sang!

I was there the night they killed country music

I was sittin' on a barstool cryin' in my beer

I was there the night they killed country music

In one evenin', they destroyed the last fifty years

In one evenin', they destroyed the last fifty years
