Hold on to whats right and we'll be better for it
Having fun after chores are done---if you'd like to do a version of the songs let me know---love to hear it
Story behind the song
thoughts about gettin back to being polite and respectful
Lyrics
A Little Dose of old Country
Verse 1
Can I still be a little bit of country, though there’s concrete all around
Can I still walk down these asphalt streets with my boots and Stetson on
Can I show you all what country’s like, it’s polite but something more
If you’re goin in or goin out, you’re the one that holds the door
Chorus 1
And a little dose of old country will surely save this land
Tip your hat to every lady, with respect, we call her “maam”
Verse 2
All fences can’t make good neighbors it’s not the country way
Wave your hand and sing out “mornin” to start a better day
Call them all together Sunday for some hot dogs and a game
Everybody learns what “old country is” and you’ll find we’re all the same
Chorus 2
And a little dose of old country, includes a helpin hand
Everybody you meets your neighbor, and their all your fellow man
Guitar solo (Key change up)
Chorus 3
Don’t forget your dose of country when you meet the ones that served
Tip your hat to freedoms ladies and do call those men “sir”
Verse 3
When you get a little dose of old country, it’s so clear what’s wrong and right
Teach your children all about self respect and the good Lord’s guiding light
When you’re still living like the old country it brings those other styles to shame
For those of us with old country we will always win life’s game
Chorus 4
In this new age of old country, we’ll keep the country way
It’s a better way of living, let’s forever country stay
And a big ol dose of old country will surely help this land
We’re holdin on to old country with old country we will stand
(repeat line and fade)
