Story Behind The Song
I wanted a song for our hard rock band to perform that would throw fans for a loop. So, I wrote this Country/Bluegrass fusion song that promotes the virtue of Country music.

Lyrics
No More Rock & Roll Wm. Hammond C 1980
I love the music that those country boyz sang. Their voices kinda whine and their guitars kinda twang.
In the even'n just 'round supper you can hear 'em play. Layin' down those sweet, sweet sounds -
'pert near every day.
No, no, no more - no more rock & roll. There's those times when you need to unwind -
Let country sooth your soul.
No, no, no more - no more rock & roll. Let country music sooth your soul.
I've grown, I've mellowed some. My taste in music's changed.
What I used to listen to then, now seems strange.
Put on some Hank, or play me a record sung by old George Jones.
You know when I hear sweet Willie sing - it takes my mind back home.
(solo)
