Too Country

Too country what's that

Is that like too Republican or too Democrat

Is it too far too the left, too far to the right

Too straight down the middle, is it too black or too white?



Are the biscuits too fluffy, is the chicken too fried

Is the gravy too thick, are the peas too black-eyed

Is the iced tea too sweet, does it have too much tang

Are there too many lemons in Mama's lemon meringue?



Are the roses too red, is the sunshine too bright

Are there too many stars in the heavens at night

Are there too many fish that still jump in the stream

Is the sky too blue, is the clean air too clean?



Too country what's that

Is it too many pearls of wisdom under Grandpa's old hat

Is it just too old-fashioned, is it just too antique

Is the question too strong, is the answer too weak?



Is the grace too amazing, is the steeple too tall

Are there too many yes sirs, yes ma'ams and how're y'll

Is the message too real, too close to the bone

Do the fiddle and steel remind you too much of home.



Is honest and true just not in demand

Too country, too country, too country I don't understand...
