I Was Country When Country Wasn't Pop--Cledus T. Judd feat. George Jones
Parody of "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool" written by Morgan/Flemming
New lyrics by Cledus T. Judd and Christopher Clark
Thanks to Tele_Tickler for the original chords; any mistakes are mine.

Now, I enjoy Rascal Flatts, and I think Big Kenny and John Rich are the best thing to
happen to Nashville in ages...but let's face it, they don't make 'em like they used to:
Waylon, Jones, Kristofferson, Hag, Conway, Cash, Nelson, Bocephus, etc. etc.   Here's
a song for those of you with a similar frame of mind.


INTRO: G   C (once)

            G
I remember hearin' Lee Ann Rhymes 
                                      C
When she sang "Blue" it sounded like Patsy Cline
       G
And I love that group SHeDAISY
                                          C
But don't they sound a lot like Destiny's Child
             F                                Em7
Now Michael Bolton's on the Opry, and they've turned me down again
     C               Csus4     Am    Am-F
And man that really hurts me a lot
              Dm                           G              C
'Cause I was country (he was country) when country wasn't pop


I remember "He Stopped Loving Her Today"
Back when radio would play George Jones
You never hear "Family Tradition"
Or all those killer songs Bocephus wrote
And I ain't heard twin fiddlin since I don't know when
Now it's more like Brittany Spears than it is Loretta Lynn
I was country (he was country) when country wasn't pop


CHORUS 1:
            G                            Cadd9
Yeah I was country, when country wasn't pop
           G                        C
Yeah I was country, way before Kid Rock
      F        Em7
Now every add sounds the same
       C             Csus4   Am      Am-F
This crossin' over's got to stop
           Dm                            G               C
Yeah I was country (he was country) when country wasn't pop


BREAK

           F                                Em7
Well they sound like Smashing Pumpkins in a pair of cowboy boots
C                   Csus4           Am           F
They just 'bout as country as Hewey Luis and the News
        Dm                           G             C
I was country (he was country) when country wasn't pop


CHORUS 2 (George Jones):

Yeah I was country, when country wasn't pop
I was country, and I'm still proud of that a lot
Well it's a shame Shania Twain
Is mixin rock n roll and honky hip-hop
'Cause I was country (he was country) when country wasn't pop


Yeah I was country, when Barbara Mandrell was really hot
