Tonart: C major
Verse 1
A
Yeah, and then came Bakersfield,
Win Stewart,
Tommy Collins, Buck Owens,
Merle Haggard,
fueled by a million Okies hopped up on Okie
moonshine and amphetamines.
Buck Owens pushed the treble up
on the glittering steel telecasters
and steel guitars
and shredded the jukebox speakers
to give it that West Coast oaky sound.
The sound of twang cutting through smoky bar rooms
and joints along the old Oakdale Highway,
where oakies and Mexicans
fought with homemade knives
in the Hoover camps,
was the end of the world.
It was country western.
It was the other side of Steinbeck's
Grapes of Wrath
mixed with nudie suits
and and push -up bras,
and it was real gone.
It was gone hillbilly music,
too rude for polite middle -class
white boy ears.
And it was all gone by 1985.
