Lyrics
I WANT MY COUNTRY BACK
music and words by Jimmy Copens, Phillip Austin, James Reed and Sam Cooper © 2011

George Jones, Curtis Lowe,
Man I miss the Man In Black,
Beauty queens, Levi's jeans,
I want my country back,
Just gimme my country back.
Lobbyists, politics,
Honesty is what they lack,
Broken homes, bankrupt loans,
I want my country back,
Just gimme my country back.
(chorus)
Don't take my freedom away,
Don't tell me how to pray,
I have a right to say I think something's wrong.
This ain't no black or white,
No left, no right,
And D.C., they don't know jack,
And I want my country back.
Billionaires, they don't care,
If the working man falls through the crack,
No gasoline, but more methamphetamines,
I want my country back,
Just gimme my country back.
(repeat chorus)
(guitar solo)
(repeat chorus and then vamp out)
