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
