It doesn't matter if you're rich or poor
If you're old or young
Everybody, every now and then
Has got to have some funSo turn up the music, turn up the juice
Put me in the spotlight and turn me loose
You better hold on tight
This country's gonna rock tonightThis country's rockin'
To the beat of a brand new drum
Back in Kentucky where I come from
They love to hear that old guitar strumThis country's rockin'
Jump back and let the bad boys play
Everywhere across the USA
This country's rockin' all the wayYou might ride a horse, drive a Porsche
Or cruise in limousines
Eat caviar with champagne
Or cornbread with your pinto beansBut there's one thing in which we all agree
We love our country music
Like the Queen loves tea, what a lovely sight
We're gonna rock tonightThis country's rockin'
To the beat of a brand new drum
Back in Kentucky where I come from
They love to hear that old guitar strumThis country's rockin'
Jump back and let the bad boys play
Everywhere across the USA
This country's rockin' all the way
