This Is Country Music, written by Brad Paisley and Chris DuBois.
“
You're not supposed to say the word "cancer" in a song.
And tellin' folks Jesus is the answer can rub 'em wrong.
It ain't hip to sing about tractors, trucks, little towns, and mama, yeah that might be true.
But this is country music and we do.
— Brad Paisley
