Now if you want to hear about livin'
Yea, turn it on up and let it ring out
Yea, be proud of it and always love it
From sea to shinin' sea
'Cause what this country needs
Just twist that radio dial
Yea, there'd be a lot of changes
That's what this country needs
They ought to build a statue of the Hank Williams Senior
Keep what's good an' pile up what's bad
You just be proud of it an' always love it
'Cause you can't deny that people still cry
Yea, we'd go back to the basics
What life is all about
And give us a song we can all sing along
And put a little fiddle right in the middle
Straight out of a Texas bar
In Washington, D.C
Yea, be proud of it an' always love it
'Til you come to a singer singin'
Be proud of it and always love it
They laugh and they smile and they hurt
'Cause what this country needs
And that's my humble opinion y'all
And yo, give us a song, we can all sing along
From sea to shinin' sea
That's what this country needs
Across the land of the free
Is a little more steel guitar
And then I'd strike the match
Straight out of a Texas bar
Of how things ought to be
An' you can take it for what it's worth
That's what this country needs
Is a little more steel guitar
If it was left up to me
Straight out of a Texas bar
'Cause what this country needs
From sea to shinin' sea
Is a little more steel guitar
And put a saw an' fiddle right square in the middle
And give us a song we can all sing along
And put a little fiddle right in the middle
