"Country Music All Around the World" Lyrics

(Ted Harris)

Country music's all around the world
I've heard it play in ev'ry foreign land
The universal language of the universe
Somethin' ev'rybody understands.

I never let no sand get in the shoes of mine
I've spent my life just ramblin' all around
But I always felt at home no matter where I went
Cause ev'rybody plays the country sound.

One springtime in Alaska just a few years back
As I mushed my team of huskys through the snow
Another dogsled passed me doing ninety five
He was headin' for a country music show.

Country music's all around the world
I've heard it play in ev'ry foreign land
The universal language of the universe
Somethin' ev'rybody understands.

I was over in ol' Moskow when I heard about
These men you know they recently retired
They caught him in the henhouse with an ole guitar
Playin' country music got him fired.

Across the sea in Germany one sunny day
I watched a man a paddlin' down the Rhine
Poor ol' man he never saw that waterfall
He was singin' somethin' bout a sweet Fraulein.

Country music's all around the world
I've heard it play in ev'ry foreign land
The universal language of the universe
Somethin' ev'rybody understands.

Somethin' ev'rybody understands...
