(Aaron Tippin Buddy Brock) Just a skinny little Mississippi railroad man That loved to sing and play He brought his music from the cotton fields To the the hillbilly hall of fame Thank God for Jimmie Rodgers Chisel his name in the cornerstone I just wish he could've lived to see the day When country took the throne Now a million songs have come and gone Since we made that humble start About neon nights, everyday life Love and broken hearts And more and more folks Kept tuning in and turning on Now I can proudly say that I saw the day When country took the throne Now from Carolina to California, Texas to New York They can't get enough of this country stuff And they're screaming for more We painted the town with that grand old sound And the whole world sang along Yes, I was there the day When country took the throne Now, no one knows what the future holds But I bet my best guitar There'll be a jukebox jumping on Jupiter And a honky-tonk on Mars In the last frontier they'll stand and cheer The best music ever known They'll celebrate that age old day When country took the throne Now from Carolina to California, Texas to New York They can't get enough of this country stuff And they're screaming for more We painted the town with that grand old sound And the whole world sang along Yes, I was there the day When country took the throne I said I was there the day When country took the throne |
