Put Myself On

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Don't hear no twang, don't hear no fiddle Don't hear no steel, don't hear no bristle Don't hear it I don't hear it [Verse 2] Can't tell where you're from by the words in your song Tick-tocks running out, I'm 'bout to put myself on Put myself on Been on a shelf too long [Pre-Chorus] Woah, he's never played a show Woah, gotta get him on the road [Chorus] So tune him up, take him on tour Can't play guitar, can't tie a lure Don't know a word of Country State Of Mind Buy him some fans, pick him a producer Get him on TV and fake it for the viewers I know what Waylon'd say if he was still alive He'd say "I don't think Hank'd done it that way" And you would say "It's getting hard out here but a country boy can survive" [Verse 3] If you wanna bе a pop star, go be that I'll be in my bag and my cowboy hat Flying my flag, no waver to thе calls Living how I was raised, yeah, me and my dogs Me and my dogs [Verse 4] Ain't talking shit, just call it like I see He from the West Coast but sounding Tennessee All for a dollar, yeah, send him down the line But this country boy will survive [Chorus] So tune him up, take him on tour Can't play guitar, can't tie a lure Don't know a word of Country State Of Mind Buy him some fans, pick him a producer Get him on TV and fake it for the viewers I know what Waylon'd say if he was still alive He'd say "I don't think Hank'd done it that way" And you would say "It's getting hard out here but a country boy can survive" [Bridge] Woah, he's never played a show Woah, gotta get him on the radio [Chorus] So tune him up, take him on tour Can't play guitar, can't tie a lure Don't know a word of Country State Of Mind Buy him some fans, pick him a producer Get him on TV and fake it for the viewers I know what Waylon'd say if he was still alive He'd say "I don't think Hank'd done it that way" And you would say "It's getting hard out here but a country boy can survive" "It's getting hard out here but a country boy can survive" [Verse 5] Hard to get spends when there's hands getting tied Hard to break brick when you don't vote for their guy If I know one thing I know five and this country boy will survive And I'll do it my way, I'll do it with a song I'll look back and say I put myself on I put myself on
