Solid Country Gold by Shooter Jennings Lyrics
I been sinkin' like a rock in this high society
'Cause all tha tmeans so much to them, don't mean shit to me
If i were in to money, Fame and power, i'd be sold
BUt i know i tried , and i just can't find that solid country gold
Now i was born in Nashville but i left there long ago
'Cause they built music city by sacrificing soul
L.A. ain't much different, 'cept they got them fancy clothes
And there's nary a sight or a leaving light of solid country gold
Chorus:
They say country music ain't quite all it used to be
BUt they can't see the country for all the goddamned trees
If you give me to a guitar and my woman on the road
I'll give to you my family, my solid country gold
Now Baby i been thinkin' 'bout where you and i Should go
You sell your apartment, and i'll shake off my load
We'll take it down to Texas where we'll kiss that yellow rose
And find ourselves some lovin' in solid country gold
Chorus
Chorus
Yes, I'll give to you my family, My solid Country Gold
'Cause all tha tmeans so much to them, don't mean shit to me
If i were in to money, Fame and power, i'd be sold
BUt i know i tried , and i just can't find that solid country gold
Now i was born in Nashville but i left there long ago
'Cause they built music city by sacrificing soul
L.A. ain't much different, 'cept they got them fancy clothes
And there's nary a sight or a leaving light of solid country gold
Chorus:
They say country music ain't quite all it used to be
BUt they can't see the country for all the goddamned trees
If you give me to a guitar and my woman on the road
I'll give to you my family, my solid country gold
Now Baby i been thinkin' 'bout where you and i Should go
You sell your apartment, and i'll shake off my load
We'll take it down to Texas where we'll kiss that yellow rose
And find ourselves some lovin' in solid country gold

Yes, I'll give to you my family, My solid Country Gold
