Country Strong

(album: Down South - 2008)

Cat diesel power cab pulled down low
Making that bacon row by row
Can't get them muscles pumping iron all day
Just from chopping cotton, cutting corn and slinging that hay

Been heavy lifting since the crack of dawn
No doubt about it, that boy's country strong

He's up in the morning yawning with them work boots on
Working like hell till the dinner bell brings him on home
Blue collar in his blood, backwoods in his bones
No doubt about it, that boy's country strong

He wears an old felt hat on his head
Got a saddle for a pillow and the ground for a bed
Spurs on his heels, reigns in his hands
Driving cattle, roping steers and burning his brands

There ain't no letting up all day long
No doubt about it, that boy's country strong

Hes up in the morning yawning with them tony lamas on
Working like hell till the dinner bell brings him on home
Blue collar in his blood, backwoods in his bones
No doubt about it, that boy's country strong

Yeah behind every good man, there's a woman
Shes the one thing that keeps him going

(Keeps him going, yeah)

Shes up in the morning yawning with that coffee pot on
Working like hell till the dinner bell brings him back home
Blue collar in her blood, backwoods in her bones
No doubt about it, that girl's country strong

Cowboys, plow boys, good hearted women, they're all country strong
