too late to save the world

washington's just going through the motions

the middle east is going up in smoke

california's falling in the ocean

working man in wall street's

going broke

the pirates ain't just pittsburg playing baseball

they're out there wreaking havoc on the seas

lord i think my give a damns gone awol

but then again i think even you'd agree

might be too late to save the world

it may be already gone

so whats say we shift our attention

to a good ol' three chord song

now maybe i'm just talking crazy

i think together we can do this

it may be to late for the world

but can't we still save country music

how bout getting back to stuff that really matters

like drowning in some pedal steel guitar

the more i look around

the more i gather

just how bad of shape we really are

i mean who's singing to the folks down at the factory

and all the broken hearts in bars on stools

its hard to tell just what went wrong exactly

lord there must be something we can do

might be too late to save the world

it may be already gone

so whats say we shift our attention

to a good ol' three chord song

now maybe i'm just talking crazy

i think together we can do this

it may be to late for the world

but can't we still save country music

may be to late for the world

but we can still save country music
