Country Bug
It's not rhythm and blues
It's not a Broadway tune
It's not rock and roll, it not solid gold
It's not the disco craze, or the big band phase
Or the shu bop shu wadda wadda good old days
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
And though we come from the city
And you may take pity
We've been bitten,
We've been smitten by the country bug
Well back in Philadelphia, PA
We listen to the music most everyday
We'd love to sing along to our favorite songs
And we'd have a private concert in the mirror and all
Well, we sang in church, we sang in school
Weddings and plays Atlantic City too
But nothing compares to the looks and stares
We got when we broke with a country flare
It's not rhythm and blues
It's not a Broadway tune
It's not rock and roll, it not solid gold
It's not the disco craze, or the big band phase
Or the shu bop shu wadda wadda good old days
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
And though we come from the city
And you may take pity
We've been bitten,
We've been smitten by the country bug
When it comes to music we like everything
Motown and pop, a little jazz and swing
But when the fiddle plays and the guitar strays
There ain't nothing that can keep us from the country stage
It's not rhythm and blues
It's not a Broadway tune
It's not rock and roll, it not solid gold
It's not the disco craze, or the big band phase
Or the shu bop shu wadda wadda good old days
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
And though we come from the city
And you may take pity
We've been bitten,
We've been smitten by the country bug
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
And though we come from the city
And you may take pity
We've been bitten,
We've been smitten by the country bug
We come from the city and you may take pity
But we've been bitten, we've been smitten,
We've been bitten, we've been smitten by the country bug
It's not a Broadway tune
It's not rock and roll, it not solid gold
It's not the disco craze, or the big band phase
Or the shu bop shu wadda wadda good old days
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
And though we come from the city
And you may take pity
We've been bitten,
We've been smitten by the country bug
Well back in Philadelphia, PA
We listen to the music most everyday
We'd love to sing along to our favorite songs
And we'd have a private concert in the mirror and all
Well, we sang in church, we sang in school
Weddings and plays Atlantic City too
But nothing compares to the looks and stares
We got when we broke with a country flare
It's not rhythm and blues
It's not a Broadway tune
It's not rock and roll, it not solid gold
It's not the disco craze, or the big band phase
Or the shu bop shu wadda wadda good old days
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
And though we come from the city
And you may take pity
We've been bitten,
We've been smitten by the country bug

We're singing country,
We're singing country now
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
And though we come from the city
And you may take pity
We've been bitten,
We've been smitten by the country bug
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
We're singing country,
We're singing country now
And though we come from the city
And you may take pity
We've been bitten,
We've been smitten by the country bug
We come from the city and you may take pity
But we've been bitten, we've been smitten,
We've been bitten, we've been smitten by the country bug
