Is There a Market for Country-Western Dittys about Cycling?

I present lyrics about a rookie cyclist making boneheaded mistakes:

{GUITAR STRUMMING}
Discovered craaaaaaaacks
in my new carbon fiber road bike
My knowledge laaaaaaacks
in maintenance and the like

{CUE WASHTUB BASS, DRUMS AND SAW}
Cracked my tooooooth
On a covered bridge
Not so smoooooooth
Lost my line just a smidge

{CHORUS}
I'm just a grifter
a pseudo cycling drifter
my head cannot lift- ehr
destroyed my new shimano shifter

on my riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiims
some old tires shrunk
oh my liiiiiiiiimbs
from riding my cross bike

CHORUS REPEATS, ADD SINGING CHILDREN}
I'm just a grifter
a pseudo cycling drifter
my head cannot lift- ehr
destroyed my new shimano shifter

{CUE SOBBING SOUND EFFECTS}

Not based on reality whatsoever. I need to think of a showbiz name like Conway Campy, Brooks & San Marco or Kenny Paceline.

I could use the proceeds to pay off all the layaway and new parts I may need.
