Murder On Music Row Lyric
George Strait
FOR THE LAST TIME: LIVE FORM THE ASTRODOME
Nobody saw him running from sixteenth avenue. They never
found the fingerprint or the weapon that was used. But someone killed
country music, cut out its heart and soul. They got away with murder down on
music row.
The almighty dollar and the lust for worldwide fame
Slowly killed tradition and for that someone should hang (oh, you tell them
Alan). They all say not guilty, but the evidence will show That
murder was committed down on music row.
Chorus: For the steel
guitars no longer cry and fiddles barely play, But drums and rock ‘n roll
guitars are mixed up in your face. Old Hank wouldn’t have a chance on
today’s radio Since they committed murder down on music row.
They
thought no one would miss it, once it was dead and gone They said no one
would buy them old drinking and cheating songs (I’ll still buy ‘em) Well
there ain’t no justice in it and the hard facts are cold Murder’s been
committed down on music row.
Chorus: Oh, the steel guitars no longer
cry and you can’t hear fiddles play With drums and rock ‘n roll guitars
mixed right up in your face Why, the Hag, he wouldn’t have a chance on
today’s radio Since they committed murder down on music row Why, they
even tell the Possum to pack up and go back home There’s been an awful
murder down on music row.
