"That's Country To Me" lyrics
Franklin Embry, Corey Tester & Charlie Farley Lyrics
Back home where the moonshine flows
Yeah buddy that's all I know
I live by a country code
So I'm walking barefooted on them gravel roads
We making mud from dirt and shine from water
All we know is hard work, we turn them dreams to dollars
Yeah our necks are red but our greens are collard
Every day I wake up thanking God for these heels and hollers
Round here these roots run deep
Like a plow in the hot summer heat
Rolling hills, cattle fields
That's country to me
I help my brothers in need
I live for what I believe
God, guns and family
That's country to me
I was raised in these KY hills
Daddy had some cattle just to try and pay bills
Had to learn how to grapple 'cause the struggle was real
Sitting in the saddle, had to earn my meals
All they see is camo, duck blinds and ammo
Big trucks in the muck, wanna be Rambo
But there's a call we carry in our soul
Do right by your neighbor and forgive your foe
See, it's God, family, can't forget them guns
Hard work in the sun till the job gets done
And if you wanna fight you can come get some
One thing's for sure, them boys don't run
Round here these roots run deep
Like a plow in the hot summer heat
Rolling hills, cattle fields
That's country to me
I help my brothers in need
I live for what I believe
God, guns and family
That's country to me
Yeah, that's country to me
That's country to me
Give me a plot of land and a tractor to till it
If it grows, I'll plant it, if it walks, I'll kill it
I'm instilling these principles in all of my children
So that they can carry on this way of life I was given
Like giving it all you got even when your tank's low
One day you're the arrow, the next, the bow
Life's like these streams, it ebbs and flows
But it's always better out on these dirt roads
Round here these roots run deep
Like a plow in the hot summer heat
Rolling hills, cattle fields
That's country to me
I help my brothers in need
I live for what I believe
God, guns and family
That's country to me
Yeah buddy that's all I know
I live by a country code
So I'm walking barefooted on them gravel roads
We making mud from dirt and shine from water
All we know is hard work, we turn them dreams to dollars
Yeah our necks are red but our greens are collard
Every day I wake up thanking God for these heels and hollers
Round here these roots run deep
Like a plow in the hot summer heat
Rolling hills, cattle fields
That's country to me
I help my brothers in need
I live for what I believe
God, guns and family
That's country to me
I was raised in these KY hills
Daddy had some cattle just to try and pay bills
Had to learn how to grapple 'cause the struggle was real
Sitting in the saddle, had to earn my meals
All they see is camo, duck blinds and ammo
Big trucks in the muck, wanna be Rambo
But there's a call we carry in our soul
Do right by your neighbor and forgive your foe
See, it's God, family, can't forget them guns
Hard work in the sun till the job gets done
And if you wanna fight you can come get some
One thing's for sure, them boys don't run
Round here these roots run deep
Like a plow in the hot summer heat
Rolling hills, cattle fields
That's country to me

That's country to me
Yeah, that's country to me
