Country Boy
Aaron Lewis
Letra

Well I grew up down an old dirt road in a town you wouldn't know
My Pops picked the place up for fifteen hundred bucks back in 1964
My grandfather was a drinker back in the day he put 'em down
But a war is known to change a man and the whiskeys known to change the man

That's not me
I rarely drink from a bottle
But I'll smoke a little weed
I still live in the sticks where you wouldn't go in a town of 1200 off an old dirt road
And a country boy is all I'll ever be

Now it's been 12 years since I've sold my soul to the devil in L. A
He said sign your name here on the dotted line and your songs they all will play
He set up shot on Sunset, he put me up at the Marquee
He said you want to sell a million records boy, you better listen to me

He said change your style, whiten your smile, you could lose a couple pounds
If you want to live this life you better lose that wife
Do you need your friends around?

I said

No that's not me
'CauseThe biggest things in life are my friends and family
And I like my jeans and my old t shirt and a couple extra pounds never really hurt
'Cause a country boy is all I'll ever be

'Cause Hank taught me just how to stay alive
You'll never catch me out the house without my 9 or 45
I got a big orange tractor and a diesel truck
My idea of heaven is chasing white tail bucks
And as a country boy, you know I can survive

Now two flags fly above my land and they really sum up how I feel
One is the colors that fly high and proud
The Red, The White, The Blue

The other ones got a rattle snake with a simple statement made
Don't Tread on Me is what it says and I'll take that to my grave

Because this is me
I'm proud to be American and strong in my beliefs

And I've said it before but I'll say it again
'Cause I never needed Government to hold my hand
And I've said it before but I'll say it again
'Cause my family's always fight and died to save this land
And a country boy is all I'll ever be
