Country Star
Way back in the beginnin' on the local radio
Heard myself a-singin' on a television show
Ten minutes later, rodeo came to town
Got a job on a buckin' horse, jumpin' up and down
Ain't that strange?
It's a mystery
Just another 24 in the 365
24-7, glad to be alive
All I need is a motor in my car
Crank it up, hit the road
Be a country star
I was raised by alligators in the Pearl River swamp
Started out dancin' on a boogie-woogie stump
Stump fell in, went to the bottom
Fish said, "Boys, smoke 'em if ya got 'em"
Ain't that strange?
It's a mystery
Just another 24 in the 365
24-7, glad to be alive
All I need is a motor in my car
Crank it up, hit the road
Be a country star
Fell in love with a woman who was half wildcat
Wore a big diamond she stole from Lester Flatt
We were gonna get married, but the law was on her trail
'Stead of honeymoonin' kitty went to jail
Ain't that strange?
It's a mystery
Just another 24 in the 365
24-7, glad to be alive
All I need is a motor in my car
Crank it up, hit the road
Be a country star, oh!
Oh, oh-oh-oh!
Heard myself a-singin' on a television show
Ten minutes later, rodeo came to town
Got a job on a buckin' horse, jumpin' up and down
Ain't that strange?
It's a mystery
Just another 24 in the 365
24-7, glad to be alive
All I need is a motor in my car
Crank it up, hit the road
Be a country star
I was raised by alligators in the Pearl River swamp
Started out dancin' on a boogie-woogie stump
Stump fell in, went to the bottom
Fish said, "Boys, smoke 'em if ya got 'em"
Ain't that strange?
It's a mystery
Just another 24 in the 365
24-7, glad to be alive
All I need is a motor in my car
Crank it up, hit the road
Be a country star
Fell in love with a woman who was half wildcat
Wore a big diamond she stole from Lester Flatt
We were gonna get married, but the law was on her trail
'Stead of honeymoonin' kitty went to jail
Ain't that strange?
It's a mystery
Just another 24 in the 365
24-7, glad to be alive
All I need is a motor in my car
Crank it up, hit the road
Be a country star, oh!
Oh, oh-oh-oh!
