I Ain't Song (Acoustic Demo) Lyrics
(Waylon Jennings)
Fred Slacks moves up to Hollywood, he's in love, that's a fact
Done found himself a movie star, gonna show him out that
You better grin - yes, I'll do
Have you seen Tania Tucker, hand a-knittin' there, hang and talkin'
Pretty Dolly Parton, strung out much more than any other one
But a few new Country Ladies that are seen to go advancin' fast
Should forget about my Dolly, for they blow their country class now
Travis Trips got all the talent, at least, that seems that way to me
He's a little brazen cockney, he's got a right to be
Billy Ray keeps right on dancin', out of tune and out of time
He kinda bubbles up the wall and the girls are out there, lyin'
Livin' mansions are a dyin' breeze in a raked up minuet
To tell the truth, I ain't admit feelin' real hot lately in my pants' sack
I ain't old and I ain't bitter, I ain't mad at anyone
Hope you don't take that seriously, but hope that you have fun
But if you've ever been to Nashville, then I think, you might agree
We've seen a lot of changes, things we never thought, we would see
A Rock and Roll over the banjo, now that I might recall, but a Country
Singer with a briefcase, it's all I never saw, it's changin' there
Now I mean when you - you asked there to swallow a line, like I - I ain't
Mad at anyone, I ain't old and I ain't bitter, I guess my God dam things
