Long live Patsy Cline
Strawberry Wine
fiddles and a steel guitar
Long live needle drops
in a jukebox
in a hole-in-the-wall dive bar
Long live late night drives
in a short-bed Chevy
holdin' that pretty girl close
listenin' to the radio
Long live country music
Long live longnecks
bar stools
neon Saturday nights
Oh long live country music
May that three-chord dirt-road
soundtrack to our lives
never die
Long live rodeos
dusty boot soles
two-steppin
on a hardwood floor
Long live the cover band
rollin' in a white van
kickin' off swingin' doors
Here's to that teenage kid
learnin' B&D songs
on an old pawn shop six-string
with a head full
of honky-tonk dreams
Long live country music
Long live longnecks
bar stools
neon Saturday nights
Oh long live country music
May that three-chord dirt-road
soundtrack to our lives
oh never die
Here's to the troubadors
that tip their hats
to the Hanks
that came before them
May that Grand Ole Opry circle
be unbroken
Long live country music
Long live cowboys cowgirls
neon Saturday nights
Oh long live country music
May that three-chord dirt-road
soundtrack to our lives
never die
Country music
never die
