Country Music Awards 2017: Highlights

Hiya, folks. Welcome to Nashville.

I'm here at the Bridgestone Arena

for the 51st Annual Country Music Association Awards.

MUSIC PLAYS

This is the biggest night in the country music calendar

and all the major country stars are here to perform

and to collect the awards which include the really big one

tonight, Entertainer Of The Year.

It's going to be an amazing night,

so let's join country music superstars, Brad Paisley and

Carrie Underwood to introduce the

51st Country Music Association Awards.

MUSIC PLAYS

Are you ready for country music's biggest night?

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Now, Brad, I don't know if you've heard about this

but the CMA has given us some guidelines with specific topics to

-avoid, so...

-What?

-We can't be doing any of our silly little songs

because this year's show is a politics free zone.

Are you kidding me? That's not fair.

What are you doing, Brad?

Oh, I'm definitely not doing this.

# Right now, he's probably in his PJs watching cable news

# Reaching for his cellphone

Really?

# Right now, he's probably asking Siri

# How in the hell do you spell Pocahontas?

# Well, here we go

# In the middle of the night from the privacy

# Of a gold-plated White House toilet seat

# He writes little Bob Corker NFL and Kofi

# Kofi

Kofeffee?

-Kofifi?

-Kofeffee.

-Kofifi.

-Feffee.

-Fifi.

-Feff.

-Gesundheit.

-Thank you.

# And it's fun to watch it, that's for sure

# Till little rocket man starts a nuclear war

# And then many next time he'll think before he tweets. #

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

# We were golden, we were fire we were magic

# Yeah, and they all knew our names all over town

# We had it made in the middle of the madness

# We were neon in a grey crowd

# Yeah, we wrote our own story

# Full of blood, sweat, and heartbeats

# We didn't do it for the fame or the glory

# But we went down in history

# Yeah, we were legends

# Loving you baby, it was heaven

# What everyone wondered, we never questioned

# Closed our eyes and took on the world together

# Do you remember?

# We were crazy, tragic and epic, and so amazing

# I'll always wear the crown that you gave me

# We will always stay lost in forever, and they'll remember

# We were legends

# Like we were written down in permanent marker

# Not even the brightest sun could ever fade

# Come whichever, hell or high water

# It was always me and you either way

# Hey, we wrote our own story

# Full of blood, sweat, and heartbeats

# We didn't do it for the fame or the glory

# We just did it for you and me

# And that's why we were legends

# Loving you baby, it was heaven

# What everyone wondered, we never questioned

# Closed our eyes and took on the world together

# Do you remember?

# We were crazy, tragic and epic, and so amazing

# I'll always wear the crown that you gave me

# We will always stay lost in forever, and they'll remember

# We were legends

# We were legends

# Loving you baby,

# It was heaven

# What everyone wondered

# We never questioned

# Closed our eyes and took on the world together

# Do you remember baby?

# We were crazy, tragic and epic, and so amazing

# I'll always wear the crown that you gave me

# We will always stay lost in forever, and they'll remember

# We were legends

# Yeah, we were legends

# And we wrote our own story. #

# And when you start to fall, you'll hold on to your pride

# Start building up your walls and never let her get inside

# You'll push her away cos that's all you know how to do

# And then she'll leave and you won't beg her not to go

# Ask me how I know

# Go on and shake your head and tell me that I'm wrong

# Say, "I'm just another fool and this is just another song"

# But I know how you are cos I know how I am

# And I'd give anything to go back and try again

# But one day you'll meet the girl you swore you'd never find

# Start feeling things you never felt and spending all your time

# Trying to figure out how she got this hold on you

# And when you start to fall, you'll hold on to your pride

# Start building up your walls and never let her get inside

# You'll push her away cos that's all you know how to do

# And then she'll leave and you won't beg her not to go

# Ask me how I know

# And you best put this song on repeat

# Maybe then you won't end up like me

# But one day you'll meet the girl you swore you'd never find

# Start feeling things you never felt and spending all your time

# Trying to figure out how she got this hold on you

# And when you start to fall, you'll hold on to your pride

# Start building up your walls and never let her get inside

# You'll push her away cos that's all you know how to do

# Don't rock the jukebox I want to hear some Jones

# My heart ain't ready For the Rolling Stones

# I don't feel like rockin' Since my baby's gone

# So don't rock the jukebox Play me a country song

# Before you drop that quarter Keep one thing in mind

# Hillbilly in line

# I've been down and lonely Ever since she left

# Before you punch that number Could I make one request?

# Don't rock the jukebox I want to hear some Jones

# My heart ain't ready For the Rolling Stones

# I don't feel like rockin' Since my baby's gone

# So don't rock the jukebox Play me a country song

# Don't rock the jukebox Play me a country song. #
