"Amen" lyrics

"Amen"

Well I'm country as a cricket
On the creek bank in the shade
Son I'm down home like a gospel song on a hymn book page

I'm a good time with a guitar
And a good shot with a gun
And I'm an old schooler got some cans in a cooler
On backroads beer run

And I've got dixieland beneath my feet
And I was raised up down where roots run deep
And I was born a good ol boy by the grace of the good Lords hands
Now can I get a amen

Got a Bible on the dresser, a 45 in the drawer
And if your tred on me hoss you best believe you'll know what I got em for
It ain't no mystery I like simplicity
And that's how I spend my days
And my family traditions are hunting and fishing
And leaning towards the old ways

And I've got dixieland beneath my feet
And I was raised up down where roots run deep
And I was born a good ol boy by the grace of the good Lords hands
Now can I get a amen

I'm just laid up here in a country state of mind
Canceling out some daylight flights in my duckblind
I got a pickup truck a few white tail bucks and longbeards on the wall
I thank the good Lord twice every morning I rise
For this life hey how bout ya'll

And I've got dixieland beneath my feet
And I was raised up down where roots run deep
And I was born a good ol boy by the grace of the good Lords hands
Now can I get a amen
