Up there on the stage
A band called Prairie Sage
Was tryin' to keep the old ways alive
But the urbans, they wouldn't listen
Well, they bought t-shirts and went pissin' off all the locals for comin' to this dive
And I was there the night they killed country musicI was sittin' on a barstool cryin' in my beer
I was there the night they killed country music
In one evenin', they destroyed the last fifty years
