I just got the news today, the record I sent them they threw it away

It happened to Jones, and even The Hag

Waylon and Willie, and the great Johnny Cash

They kicked em right out, without even a word

But that ain't the end of the story I heard
[Chorus]

'Cause Cash stomped out the footlights

Haggard plum had a ball

And Willie and Waylon and Kris toured the nation

And Jones never showed up at all
