THEY DON’T PLAY GEORGE JONES ON MTV

There was a time Luke had it made

He knew every song to play

Cryin time, I’ll walk the line, to good old Clifton Clowers

Always in demand, people loved his little band

When they’d pick the daylights out of Wildwood Flower

Though he never was a star

It never took him quite that far

He still dreamed of Nashville Tennessee

Somewhere somethin passed him by, and no one told him why

They don’t play George Jones on MTV

 

Chorus: He’s still out there low and lonely after midnight

When it’s down to two or three

When there’s country in your soul

It won’t come out rock and roll

But they don’t play George Jones on MTV

 

Luke’s still got that old guitar

In the back seat of his car

He’s waitin for some chance to play for free

Pumpin gas don’t really pay but there ain’t much else to do these days

Cause they don’t play George Jones on MTV

Chorus: He’s still out there low and lonely…

break , repeat chorus… end
