Too Country

Too country, what's that?
Is it like too Republican or too Democrat?
Is it too far to the left or too far to the right?
Too straight down the middle, is it too black or too white?

Are the biscuits too fluffy? Is the chicken too fried?
Is the gravy too thick? Are the Peas too Black-Eyed?
Is the iced tea too sweet? Does it have too much Tang?
Are there too many lemons in mama's lemon Meringue?

Too country, well now what's that
It is too many pearls of wisdom under grandpa's old hat
Is it just too old fashioned or it just too antique?
Is the question too strong or is the answer too weak?

Are the roses too red is the sunshine too bright?
Are there too many stars in the Heavens at night?
Are there too many fish that still jump in the stream?
Is the blue sky too blue? Is the clean air too clean?

Is the grace too amazing? Is the steeple too tall?
Are there too many, "Yes sir's", "Yes madam's and, "How're y'alls?"
Is the message too real, too close to the bone?
Do the fiddle and steel remind you too much of home?

Is honest and true just not in demand?
Too country
Too country
