My granddad raised this question
Chasing brumby’s through the scrub
He looked down from his horse and said
This is very simple son
It’s a very simple question 
And I’m very sure of that
Tell me
Why do country singers wear those black hats?

Chorus 
Tell me why do country singers wear those black hats
I can understand those Yankees
The likes of Johnny Cash
Chit Akins, Garth Brooks and other names like that
Tell me
Why do country singers wear those black hats?

It must improve their singing 
And guitar playing too
I can’t think of another reason
They would inflict that sight on you
I’m a little puzzled here
And I bet you’re confused too
Tell me
Why do country singers wear those black hats?

Chorus
Tell me why do country singers wear those black hats?
I can understand those Yankees
The likes of Johnny Cash
Chit Akins, Garth Brooks and other names like that
Tell me
Why do country singers wear those black hats? 

Last night we saw this singer
Down at the local pub
We were drinking Tooheys
And throwing down our grub
He had on a Singlet and a pair of King Gee shorts
And I guess he could kinda sing of sorts
Granddad said gee… what did you think of that?
This guy had on his head 
A bloody big black hat!

Chorus
