      Every generation seems to interpret "country music" differently. If youtube or the internet had been available in the 1960 I feel sure that the 1940's generation would have said the same thing about Waylon and Buck Owens version of country. I like a variety of music genres. I am not a fan of rap or hip-hop or ballet music. These forms of expression just does not fit my taste. But they are legitimate forms of expression. I grew up listening to Tennessee Ernie Ford, Jim Reeves and Hank Williams Sr. I like some of their stuff but not all of it. Just like today's "country music".

    Sitting at a tiny table in a Ritzy restaurant
    She was staring at her coffee cup
    He was trying to keep his courage up by plying booze
    Talk was small when they talked at all
    They both knew what they wanted
    There was no need to talk about it
    They were old enough to scope it out
    And keep it loose
    She said, "You don't look like my type but I guess you'll do"
    Third rate romance, low rent rendezvous
    He said, "I'll even tell you that I love you if you want me to"
    Third rate romance, low rent rendezvous
    They left the bar, they got in his car and they drove away
    They drove to the Family Inn
    She didn't even have to pretend, she didn't know what for
    He went to the desk and made his request while she waited outside
    He came back with the key
    She said, "Give it to me and I'll unlock the door"
    She kept saying, "I've never really done
    This kind of thing before, have you?"

The very first line of the lyric reads "Sittin' in a tiny table in a ritzy restaurant". I know it makes you feel superior when you attempt to correct perceived spelling errors.

    I know I have left a lot of other great artists out , they aren't forgotten , just trying to express my disappointment in the direction of country today .
