If you ain’t from here, then you just wouldn’t know
How our roads don’t have lights and we get ice not snow
We got ridges and trees, country hills and plateaus
Got kids born and raised here watchin their own grow
If you think it’s just country songs, lifted trucks, and slammin’ back doors
If you think, there’s just miles and miles of them cheap Dollar Stores
If you think it’s sittin’ round a fire with marshmallows and smores
Being country, it’s that and a hell of a lot more
Sittin’ down by the creek catchin’ lizards and toads
Waitin’ to zip around that old tractor drivin’ on the road
If you asked me there ain’t no place that i’d rather go
12 o’clock it’s 70 degrees 1 o’clock it’s 7 below
If you think it’s just country songs, lifted trucks, and slammin’ back doors
If you think, there’s just miles and miles of them cheap Dollar Stores
If you think it’s sittin’ round a fire with marshmallows and smores
Being country, it’s that and a hell of a lot more
You call em grandpa and think that hard work is heavy
We call em pawpaw and drive lifted Chevies
You listen to pop songs and hate to get dirty
We listen to McGraw and get no where in a hurry
If you think it’s just country songs, lifted trucks, and slammin’ back doors
If you think, there’s just miles and miles of them cheap Dollar Stores
If you think it’s sittin’ round a fire with marshmallows and smores
Being country, it’s that and a hell of a lot more
