The Hag has cashed in but the working man’s alive
It crawls up my skin when good people have to die
Johnny Cash he left the show when I was ‘bout fifteen
But it didn’t hurt me all that much, I’m still acting mean
My country music heroes get killed off one by one
Clearly I’s born too late, I’ve missed a lot of fun
The possum did not turn up to his final show
But he was no show Jones, so that was normal I suppose
Conway Twitty, without a warning, he just took that death train ride
Some 30 odd years later he was featured in family guy
My country music heroes get killed off one by one
Clearly I’s born too late, I’ve missed a lot of fun
Patsy Cline, she was divine, as were Tammy Wynette
She proudly sang Stand by your man, but you know, in fact
That was all just irony, she’s trying to fit the frame
of the game in the olden days of Nashville, USA
My country music heroes have been killed off one by one
Clearly I’s born too late, I’ve missed a lot of fun
Just as I’m putting down these words into text
I cannot help but wonder who of them is gonna be next
Might it be Kristofferson, Willie Nelson or John Prine?
I just gotta see ‘em all while they’re still alive
‘cause my country music heroes get killed off one by one
Clearly I’s born too late, I’ve missed a lot of fun
