Country to the Bone

(Verse 1)
Tried on city life for size
Never seemed to fit me right
Tall buildings blocked the warm sunshine
Open space was hard to find
Guess I’m just a backwoods fool
Noise and traffic ain't in my gene pool
Cause deep inside of me

(Chorus)
Flowin’ through my veins are hills and creeks
My fam’ly roots won’t grow down through concrete
I’m headed back on home
My red neck ain’t skin deep
I’m country to the bone

(Verse 2)
Horseback rides down red dirt roads
Take me where I wanna go
Back to tend my little spread
Smell the pines and fresh-baked bread
Work the soil with my two hands
Feels like I'm one with the land
It’s deep inside of me

(Chorus)
Flowin’ through my veins are hills and creeks
My fam’ly roots won’t grow down through concrete
I’m headed back on home
My red neck ain’t skin deep
I’m country to the bone

(Bridge)
Cities spring up awful fast...but
Buildings crumble, mountains last
Deep inside me

(Chorus)
Flowin’ through my veins are hills and creeks
My fam’ly roots won’t grow down through concrete
I’m headed back on home
My red neck ain’t skin deep
I’m country to the bone
Yeah, I’m country to the bone
