This Ain't Rock And Roll

(album: Watching Time Run - 2011)

I drive a compact SUV with a (street ford) engine inside
And I think the Union won the war but I respect your pride
And I don't chew tobacco but man I'll drink your beer
I was born up above the Dixie line and I ended up down here

I'm not country but I like the country, I know where I'm from
When I hear your songs on the radio, I start having fun
I'm so down with deep fried chicken; Jesus saved my soul
Yeah I'm a Northern City boy and this ain't rock and roll

I don't like watching NASCAR but God bless the number 3
I cheer on the Pittsburgh Steelers, I don't watch the SCC
I don't shot guns or ride horses but I'll give 'em both a try
If Johnny Cash ever heard this song I bet he'd start to cry

I'm not country but I like the country, I know where I'm from
When I hear your songs on the radio, I start having fun
I'm so down with deep fried chicken; Jesus saved my soul
Yeah I'm a Northern City boy and this ain't rock and roll

No ooh oh

I like pretty southern bells and I like to take things slow but
My cousins are NYPDs and I can drive in the snow
Yeah I grew up playing in the dirt up where it ain't red
And I got one pair of cowboy boots but they ain't going to my head

I'm not country but I like the country, I'm not saying that I'm a real dude
And when your songs come on the radio, I like the way I feel
I'm so down with deep fried chicken; Jesus saved my soul
Yeah I'm a Northern City boy but this ain't, no this ain't rock and roll
This ain't rock and roll oh oh oh, here we go
