Solid Country Gold Lyrics - Shooter Jennings

Well I been sinking like a rock in this high society 

'Cause all that means so much to them, don't mean shit to me 

If I were in to money, fame and power, I'd be sold 

But I know I tried , and I just can't find that solid country gold 

But now I was born in Nashville but I left there long ago 

'Cause they built music city by sacrificing soul 

L.A. ain't much different, accept they got them fancy clothes 

And there's nary a sight or a leaving light of solid country gold 

'Cause they say country music ain't quite all it used to be 

But they can't see the country for all the goddamned trees 

If you give me to a guitar and my woman on the road 

I'll give to you my family, my solid country gold alright 

Now baby I been thinking 'bout where you and I should go 

You sell your apartment, and I'll shake off my load 

We'll take it down to Texas where we'll kiss that yellow rose 

And find ourselves some loving in solid country gold 

Well they say country music ain't quite all it used to be 

But they can't see the country for all the goddamned trees 

If you give me to a guitar and my woman on the road 

I'll give to you my family, my solid country gold 

Oh 'cause they say country music ain't quite all it used to be 

They can't see the country for all the goddamned trees 

And if you give me to a guitar and my woman on the road 

I'll give to you my family, my solid country gold yeah 

Yes, I'll give to you my family, my solid country gold, alright
