Cover art for Country My Ass lyrics by Dale Watson

This one's pretty self-explanatory — a direct shot across Nashville's bow. Watson has long been a champion of old-school country and a critic of watered-down faux country that's really just pop music with an accent. (Kenny Chesney, we're looking at you.)

The second verse is likely a reference to Shania Twain, who, in addition to have a nice set of ... wits ... married her producer, Mutt Lange (of Def Leppard fame).

Hank and Lefty are Williams (Sr.) and Frizzell and yes, they're spinning around in their graves every time Brad Paisley and his ilk sing a note.
