Country 'til I Die Lyrics - Anderson John

I got an invite to a Saturday night 

Shindig way up town 

You know old John likes to have his fun 

I couldn't turn a party down 

The band was playing some highfalutin music 

I'd never heard before 

Everybody there seemed to like it a lot 

But I was headed for the door 

Then somebody had the nerve, to call in orderves 

Like something from a real bad dream 

On my dish was a little piece of fish 

Some rice and three green peas 

I've never had a taste for the social graces 

The way some folks do 

I've got problems, doctor can you solve 'em 

Would you give me a clue 

He said I can't treat a man in your condition 

As he looked me in the eye 

All I see, is John you'll be 

Country 'til you die 

Chorus: 

Country 'til you die 

Every bone in your body is countrified 

It runs in the family, and you can say that with pride 

It's in the way you look, the way you walk and talk 

Down to the truck you drive 

You're just gonna be country 'til you die 

Yeah... 

(Chorus) 

Yeah, I'm just gonna be country 'til I die
