Mama had it,
my daddy had it,
it ain't nothing new
A good old -fashioned country love,
like a city you never knew
Talk about it, brag about it,
sing about it too
A good old -fashioned country love,
we could have it too
A five -room house on a country road,
a good neighbor down the way
Rainfallin' on an old gin run,
sure makes the sleepin' great
Well, a hound dog lyin'
by the kitchen door,
I've been huntin' squirrels all day
We stayed together cause we
played to gether,
that's the good old country way
My mama had it, my daddy had it,
it ain't nothing new
A good old fashioned country love,
like a city you never knew
They talk about it, brag about it,
sing about it too
A good old -fashioned country love,
we can have it too
Well, a one -room church
in a country town,
filled with sounds of love
Mama Mary, my daddy there,
blessed by the Lord above
A simple love of a country girl
and a slow -talkin' country boy
It's like growin' flowers
in a coffee ket,
you can't find that no more
My mama had it, my daddy had it,
it ain't nothin' new
A good old -fashioned country,
like a city you never knew
They talk about it, they brag about it,
sing about it too.
A good old -fashioned country love,
we can have it too.
We can have it too.
