"RAISED LIKE THAT" lyrics

"RAISED LIKE THAT"

I was raised on a main street where everyone knows your name
Clear skies and late nights, hangin' out at football games
Yeah, lookin' back
I was born and I was raised like that

I was raised where a man's words as firm as his handshake
Where everybody cussed the flood but always prayed for rain
Yeah, lookin' back
I was born and I was raised like that

I was raised up on Friday nights, sneakin' in to small town bars
Raised up on country songs, singin' out 'bout broken hearts
Raised up on forty acres at the end of an old dirt track
And I wouldn't be who I am right now if I wasn't raised like that

(No)
I was raised like
I was raised like
I was raised like that (Oh)
I was raised like
I was raised like
I was raised like that

I was raised by a good man who showed me wrong from right
How to work hard, and change a flat, and be thankful for this life
And always give back
Yeah, I was born and I was raised like that
(Yeah)

Raised up on Friday nights, sneakin' in to small town bars
Raised up on country songs, singin' out 'bout broken hearts
Raised up on forty acres at the end of an old dirt track
And I wouldn't be who I am right now if I wasn't raised like that

(No)
I was raised like
I was raised like
I was raised like that (Oh)
I was raised like
I was raised like
I was raised like that

I was taught life ain't simple
But you ain't alone
I was shown what is love
In this place I call home
So for all of these lessons
I count my blessings I was

Raised up on Friday nights, sneakin' in to small town bars
Raised up on country songs, singin' out 'bout broken hearts
Raised up on forty acres at the end of an old dirt track
And I wouldn't be who I am right now if I wasn't raised like that
No
Raised up on Friday nights, sneakin' in to small town bars
Raised up on country songs, singin' out 'bout broken hearts
Raised up on 40 acres at the end of an old dirt track
And I wouldn't be who I am right now if I wasn't raised like that

(No)
I was raised like
I was raised like
I was raised like that (Oh)
I was raised like
I was raised like
I was raised like that
