Country Promised Land

(album: Hometown Anthems - 2015)

I know where my food comes from
And the friends I've got I know are real
I don't need the government to help me out
Cause and 8 point buck makes a dang good meal
Bought a truck when I turned seventeen
And had a gun rack in the back window
When the recession hit, it brought us to our knees
But god made it rain so the corn could grow

And now common sense has been swept out of this nation
With a bunch of BS laws and stupid rules
But we ain't changed the same old country station
Since 1961, it's still been cool

So I'll be waiting on the other side
With my 12 gauge and my Friday nights
If y'all wanna join me you can
Just let the world go run to the city
'Cause we'll be living in the country promised land

I got 2 boys of my own
They watch everything I do
A great woman waiting for me back home
I'd die for her in a second too

We love the Lord and we sure love our country
No matter who might be in white house now
It won't be long till all these days are history
And we still hold out hope it'll turn around

So I'll be waiting on the other side
With my 12 gauge and my Friday nights
If y'all wanna join me you can
Just let the world go run to the city
'Cause we'll be living in the country promised land

So pray in school, raise your kids right
Keep your first and second amendments alive
Love your neighbor despite the color of their skin
And keep asking Jesus to come back again
