Pig’s piano, Pete Drake steel

You may not know them, but you know the feel

A Bob Moore bass run, Buddy Harman on drums

The singers sang it, but they played it

They played in 4-4 time

They played the 1-4-5s

Didn’t always make on the credits

Their names weren’t up in lights

But down on Music Row they made magic in the studio

Every country song you know

They played it

Texas twin fiddle, a lonesome steel ride

Good country music can make you laugh or make you cry

Help you two-step with your sweetheart, drink a beer on Friday nights

When you feel something inside, they played it

They played in 4-4 time

They played the 1-4-5s

Didn’t always make on the credits

Their names weren’t up in lights

But down on Music Row they made magic in the studio

Every country song you know

They played it


They played in 4-4 time

They played the 1-4-5s

Didn’t always make on the credits

Their names weren’t up in lights

But down on Music Row they made magic in the studio

Every country song you know

They played it

Patsy Cline to Jones

They played it
