I don’t wanna be a winner
I just wanna sing in bars
I don’t wanna be one of those highfalutin’ country stars
There ain’t nothin’ wrong with losin’ when you’re losin’ thisaway
Singin’ ‘bout the times when Waylon, George, and Willie ruled the airwaves
And Hank Williams was the King

I don’t wanna have a day job
I just wanna mess around
I don’t care about succeedin’ all that hard work brings me down
I don’t wanna be a bigwig like my daddy wants me to
I just wanna get blind drunk and sing old country songs with you
Yeehaw!

I know that times are changin’
Things ain’t how they used to be
Why do all these cowboy wannabes flash cash on MTV?
Do they even still play music on that channel anyway?
I miss steel guitars and stealin’ cars with Jesus at the reigns

I don’t wanna be a winner
I just wanna sing in bars
I don’t wanna be one of those highfalutin’ country stars
There ain’t nothin’ wrong with losin’ when you’re losin’ thisaway
Singin’ ‘bout the times when Waylon, George, and Willie ruled the airwaves
And Hank Williams was the King
