Old Songs Like That Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Chiseled In Stone still chokes me up sometimes
He Stopped Lovin' Her Today brings a tear to a grown man's eye
Take This Job and Shove It makes me smile when I've had a hard day
Sure seems like those old cats knew just what to say

[Chorus]
I miss heart and soul and a petal-steal guitar
Three-quarter time and a honky tonk bar
They say it's gone and it ain't comin' back
They can say what they want - I miss old songs like that

[Verse 2]
Haggard and Hank, they always lived what they wrote
You believe what they sang, and you can feel it in every single note
I don't mind the new stuff, but truth is, that's not who I am
I'm a picker, a singer, a natural born bluesman

[Chorus]
I miss heart and soul and a pedal-steal guitar
Three-quarter time and a honky tonk bar
They say it's gone and it ain't comin' back
They can say what they want, but the cold hard fact
Is I miss old songs like that
