I grew up 48506
Where you are nothin on the sticks
With my grandpa's tractor
In the backyard
Running people wild and free
Through the fields and through the creeks
Where God's good people like to work hard
My roots run deeper than these woods
Where grass is green and life is good
Don't need no help to bait a hook
I can do it myself
If that ain't country I don't know what is
Been bumping Johnny Cash since I was a little kid
Swung a lot of rope swings out in the sun, eh
Living on fun when there wasn't no money
Drinking sweet tea some lemon on the side
Mama screaming out the screen, don't come on inside
A pan of fried chicken dipping in the honey
Come on tell me y'all if that ain't country
I don't know what is
I don't know what is
I don't know what-
I don't know what is
Play hide and seek in the corn
And we dance when it pours
Building forts way up high
In the maple trees
Bow our heads when we pray
Yeah spam is when we say
Sowing bandanas
Patching up our holey jeans
I paint my nails but it comes off
From jumping cliffs and skipping rocks
The moon is bright, let's catch some frogs y'all
If that ain't country I don't know what is
Been bumping Johnny Cash since I was a little kid
Swung a lot of rope swings out in the sun, eh
Living on fun when there wasn't no money
Drinking sweet tea some lemon on the side
Mama screaming out the screen, don't come on inside
A pan of fried chicken dipping in the honey
Come on tell me y'all if that ain't country
I don't know what is
I don't know what is
I don't know what-
I don't know what is
There's a [?]
Underneath this maybelline
Come on raise your hands up
If you were raised just like me
In a big little house
With a white picket fence
Underneath blue skies
Ain't that America
If that ain't country I don't know what is
Been bumping Johnny Cash since I was a little kid
Swung a lot of rope swings out in the sun, eh
Living on fun when there wasn't no money
Drinking sweet tea some lemon on the side
Mama screaming out the screen, don't come on inside
A pan of fried chicken dipping in the honey
Come on tell me y'all if that ain't country
I don't know what is
I don't know what is
I don't know what-
I don't know what is
I don't know what is
I don't know what is
I don't know what-
I don't know what is
I don't know what is
I don't know what is
I don't know what-
I don't know what is
