"In My Blood" lyrics

My hat hangs proud on the songs that I sing
There's a few where I've looked back and thought
Man, what was I thinkin'?
Been ragged and dirty and driftin'
With my own kind of style
It ain't pretty till it is
When you walk it a while, oh

It's in my blood
It's in my bones
It's in every single word
To every single song I've been singin'
It ain't me
To be cut out and sold
Man, why can't you see?
It's in my blood

There are more lines 'round my eyes
Than I knew were there
Like a map of the roads left behind
And a thousand-mile stare
I don't have to listen too hard
To hear the voice in my mind
It ain't pretty till it is
When it ages like wine
Like fine country wine

It's in my blood
It's in my bones
It's in every single word
To every single song I've been singin'
It ain't me
To be cut out and sold
Man, why can't you see?
It's in my blood

Use what I'm given
Making this living
I do what comes honest to me, oh

It's in my blood
It's in my bones
It's in every single word
To every single song I've been singin'
It ain't me
To be cut out and sold
Man, why can't you see?
It's in my blood

It's in my bones
It's in every single word
To every single song I've been singin'
It ain't me
To be cut out and sold
Man, why can't you see?
It's in my blood

It's in my blood
In my blood
Oh, it's in my bones
