Well the grand ole opry aint so grand anymore

Did you know Hank Williams aint a member but they keep em outside their door

Hell they didnt even really want Johnny Cash back in 74'

Said the grand ole opry aint so grand anymore

Well they were nervous about Waylon cause he had a crooked smile

For many many years they never wanted Bocephus cause hes too god damn loud

Did you really think they ever wanted Johnny Paycheck hanging around

Hell naw cause their too up tight wild

For real rebels like to get down

To most people listening to this it might seem like im talking shit

But if you look behind the scenes of whos pulling string well god dammit it'll make ya sick

Hank Williams still aint reinstated and i'll tell ya thats fuckin bullshit

And if king jimmy martin if he was still here he'd tell em all to fuckin suck his dick

Well they were nervous about Waylon cause he had a crooked smile

For many many years they never wanted Bocephus cause hes too god damn loud

Did you really think they ever wanted Johnny Paycheck hanging around

Hell naw cause their too up tight wild

For real rebels like to get down

And the grand ole opry aint so grand anymore

Well they done fucked off the people that made it when it wasnt shit before

Hell they didnt even really want Johnny Cash back in 74'

Said the grand ole opry aint so grand anymore

Naw the grand ole opry aint so grand anymore

Did you know Hank Williams aint a member but they keep em outside their door

Hell they didnt even really want Johnny Cash back in 74'

Said the grand ole opry aint so grand anymore

You know it makes me wonder folks

Has the opry sinned?
