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
