"Country Down To My Soul" lyrics

Cruising New York City
In the back of this limousine
Spending my hard-earned money
Like it grows on trees
You're an uptown girl
Mighty easy on the eye
But if you think that I big city
Then you're in for a big surprise

Now listen little darling, there's things
You need to know about me
I like grits and gravy
Hot tamales, black-eyed peas
Waking up at first daylight
Heading for a fishing hole
You might catch me rocking
But I'm country down to my soul

Well I rolled into town
Playing guitar in a hillbilly band
You like our rocking rhythm
You say it makes you want to dance
Just because I like to turn it up and
Play a little too loud
Don't think for a minute, I don't fit in
With the honky tonk crowd

Now listen little darling, there's things
You need to know about me
I like grits and gravy
Hot tamales, black-eyed peas
Jumping in my truck for a ride
Heading down some old back road
You might catch me rocking
But I'm country down to my soul

(Alright, babe, whoo!)

Yes, Ma'am I come from Texas
I'm mighty proud of my roots
I don't wear a hat
But I got forty pair of cowboy boots
Me and Bob Wills used to sing
The San Antonio Rose
That's where I learned to swing it girl
I'm country down to my soul

Now listen little darling, there's things
You need to know about me
I like grits and gravy
Hot tamales, black-eyed peas
Laying on a blanket at night
Watching the stars put on a show
You might catch me rocking
But I'm country down to my soul

You might catch me rocking
But, I'm country down to my soul
Whoo, now that's country!
