That's How the Pecan Rolls

[verse 1] Northern pike out'a water, nowhere to land Woke up in Nashville, guitar in hand Seedy hotel and walking the beat Guess that's how the Country folk meet Playing on street corners, plying my trade Can scratch that off the list of "how to get laid"! [verse 2] Working all night on just the right chord Belly tells me, look for a place you can afford Searchin' for a Diner, the lights were on Sign said open from dusk 'til dawn Up to the counter, coffee please, the night's so long I asked for a pee-can roll, found out in a hurry .. I just didn't belong! [Chorus] Patsy Cline had to really twist her tongue to get that drawl Keith Urban sure didn't grow up sayin' "Ya'll" Eddie Rabbitt dropped his old Brooklyn beat Taylor changed fast, her Pop bringin' heat I just fall in line and follow the tradition My heart sings Country and that's my mission [verse 3] Server looked at me like my faced turned green I asked again, "a pee-can roll" if you please Well this started a discussion like you never seen So hungry about to get down on my knees The word popped up in this Canuck of a brain Make it a "puh-KAHN" roll, but it sure sounded lame [verse 4] Well she said it loud "this guy ain't one of the crew" Had been passing pretty good as a dude from the Soo My Country singing days were about to end Made this guitar ring, just started to sing 'bout a "fence to mend" Guy yelled out, "buddy you got a fake accent" Heard that before, so I knew what he meant [Chorus] Patsy Cline had to really twist her tongue to get that drawl Keith Urban sure didn't grow up sayin' "Ya'll" Eddie Rabbitt dropped his old Brooklyn beat Taylor changed fast, her Pop bringin' heat I just fall in line and follow the tradition My heart sings Country and that's my mission [repeat Chours] Patsy Cline had to really twist her tongue to get that drawl Keith Urban sure didn't grow up sayin' "Ya'll" Eddie Rabbitt dropped his old Brooklyn beat Taylor changed fast, her Pop bringin' heat I just fall in line and follow the tradition My heart sings Country and that's my mission [Outro] I can't compare to any legendary voice You wanna to sing country, boy, you got no choice!
