Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We both know how it goes, or so the story's told
I run away with you
We both find out it's hard, move to the trailer park
Try to make a new start
[Verse 2]
Married at nineteen, divorce at twenty-four
Three jobs and still poor
Have to trade a life of dreams for the simple little things
Give me the right to sing
[Chorus]
'Bout the countless loves
Endless hearts gone wrong
My life is a country song
[Instrumental]
Who is he?
Somebody with nobody's name
Who am I?
Nobody playing somebody's game
I'm nobody, just
[Chorus]
Countless love with a heart gone wrong
My life is a country song
[Bridge]
Country music, it don't need to be saved
Just to remember all those who gave
[Chorus]
Countless lives in a lonesome grave
My life is a country song
[Instrumental]
We both know how it goes, or so the story's told
I run away with you
