The Three Amigos of Country Hell
As Robbie Fulks sings:
Well, I came down to Nashville in 1993
'Cause my friend Jim said Nashville had money growin' right on the trees
So I thought I'd go pick some, and I don't mean musically.
Now it's 4 years later, and I'm wonderin' where I went wrong
Shook a lotta hands, ate a lotta lunch, wrote a lotta dumbass songs
But I couldn't get a break in Nashville, if I tried my whole life long
So, ***** this town...***** this town
***** it end-to-end, ***** it up and down
Can't get noticed -- can't get found -- can't get a cut, so
***** this town.
Hey, this ain't country-western!
It's just soft-rock feminist crap!
And I thought they'd struck bottom back back in the days of Ronnie Milsap
Now they can't stop the flood of assholes: there ain't a big enough ASCAP.
Sure, I like old Tim Carroll, and BR5-49
But Nashville don't need that noise, no,
Nashville'll do just fine
As long as there's a moron market
And a faggot in a hat to sign.
***** this town! ***** this town!
*****...this...town.

You’re still grinning, we’re still winning, nothing left to say
I’m still gliding as I go flying down this endless wave

So that's the logical alternative? You were kind of being funny until that ridiculous statement.Bocanut wrote:Who listens to country radio? 18-24 year old chicks. They shouldn't be selling CDs, they should be selling tampons

An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.

Thanks for clarifying, there's really no need for such a sad face though.
