"The Last Country Song" lyrics

"The Last Country Song"

There a roadhouse just outside of town on a two-lane blacktop
Where all the folks come to hear country music play
And every year the city's getting closer, Lord knows it won't stop
And old Hank the bartender gave us the bad news today, yeah he said

This land was our land but Lord now it's their land
And we're still here, but not for long
So let's raise a cold one and play all the old ones
Still we've sung the last country song

There's three-hundred acres of cotton corn and a little bit of gravel
All bought up by a builder from downtown
Tomorrow when the earth starts a-shaking and the walls start to rattle
A big bulldozer's going to take Hank's roadhouse down, so everybody sing

This land was our land but Lord now it's their land
And we're still here, but not for long
So let's raise a cold one and play all the old ones
Still we've sung the last country song

Will we play "Swinging" or "He Stopped Loving Her Today"?
It's really sad to see it end this way

This land was our land but Lord now it's their land
And we're still here, but not for long
So let's raise a cold one and play all the old ones
Still, we've sung the last country song

Still, we've sung the last country song
Oh, we've sung the last country song
Oh, we've sung the last country song
