COUNTRY MUSIC
COUNTRY
MUSIC IS REALLY GREAT.
I
LIKE TO SIT, LISTEN AND RELATE,
TO
THE WORDS AND FEELINGS THAT THEY SING,
EVEN
THOUGH, SOMETIMES, WHAT TEARS THE SONGS BRING!
FOR
SADNESS AND HAPPINESS IS A PART OF LIFE,
AND
ALL TOO OFTEN, SOMEONE LOSES A WIFE.
LOVE
IS ALSO SUNG ABOUT, TOO,
AND
HOW IMORTANT OUR FAMILIES ARE TO ME AND YOU.
THEY
SING ABOUT WORKING HARD AND WHERE YOU COME FROM,
AND
WHO TAUGHT THEM TO PLAY THE GUITAR AND STRUM.
THEY
SING ABOUT HARD TIMES AND BEING POOR,
AND
ABOUT THE GOOD PEOPLE WHO LIVE NEXT DOOR.
THEY
ALSO SING ABOUT HAVING FRIENDS
AND
ABOUT ALL THE TROUBLE YOU AND THEY GOT IN.
THEY
ALSO SING ABOUT YOUR FIRST DATE
AND
HOW TO TELL SOMEONE YOU LOVE THEM BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
COUNTRY
MUSIC MEANS ALOT TO ME.
I
KNOW IT WILL ALWAYS BE,
SOMETHING
THAT CAN TOUCH MY HEART,
WHEN
EVERYTHING ELSE SEEMS TO FALL APART.
FOR
ME, COUNTRY MUSIC IS #1.
THE
BEST DARN MUSIC UNDER THE SUN.
WHAT
TALENTED SINGERS AND MUSICIANS, THEY ALL ARE
AND
THE MOST CARING PEOPLE IN THE INDUSTRY BY FAR.
