They tell me being country takes more than clothes
They say,
“It's a way of life... as everybody knows...
It's helping others when the chips are down
It's never giving up when nobody's around”
But here we are fighting fires side-by-side
You say you're country with plenty of pride
I start to wonder if I ain't country too,
Because deep inside I'm kinda just like you
You just smile and you shake your head
Maybe my boots ain't quite right
Maybe my hat's all wrong
Maybe I get all excited
when the radio plays that 80's metal song
Maybe I don't ride horses
Maybe I live in town
But when push comes to shove, I've got holes in my gloves
and plenty of heart to go around
You can say what you want,
but don't tell me I ain't country
I may seem stubborn when my mind is set
I try to forgive, but I never forget
While this crazy world is full of cheating and lying
if you're true to your word, I'll help you out, or die trying
But here we are fighting fires side-by-side
You say you're country with plenty of pride
I start to wonder if I ain't country too,
Because deep inside I'm kinda just like you
You just smile and you shake your head
Maybe my boots ain't quite right
Maybe my hat's all wrong
Maybe I get all excited
when the radio plays that 80's metal song
Maybe I don't ride horses
Maybe I live in town
But when push comes to shove, I've got holes in my gloves
and plenty of heart to go around
You can say what you want,
but don't tell me I ain't country
I've made plenty of mistakes
but I don't run and hide
I'm doing the best that I can
and God knows I've tried
Maybe my boots ain't quite right
Maybe my hat's all wrong
Maybe I get all excited
when the radio plays that 80's metal song
Maybe I don't ride horses
Maybe I live in town
But when push comes to shove, I've got holes in my gloves
and plenty of heart to go around
You can say what you want,
but don't tell me I ain't country
