Southern Gospel

My grandpa preached from a trailer bed
Hat potluck dinner and a Marlboro Red
And we'd sing "I Saw The Light"
A couple dozen times
We played hide and seek underneath the stars
And drank grandma's tea outta mason jars
We didn't need those city lights
It was just our way of life

Well, I was raised on it
It's where I call home
Made my way on it
And it's the only thing I know

It's in my bones, it's in my blood
It's in my roots down in the mud
And it's a redneck church choir singing
Holy, holy, holy
It's in my jeep, it's in my boots
It's in the way that spirit moves
And a part time sinner, a wanna-be apostle
Raised on southern gospel

Had a first date mix tape all queued up
And I shook her daddy's hand
And showed 'em I'm the kinda man

That was raised on it
It's the only thing I know

It's in my bones, it's in my blood
It's in my roots down in the mud
And it's a redneck church choir singing
Holy, holy, holy
It's in my jeep, it's in my boots
It's in the way that spirit moves
And a part time sinner, a wanna-be apostle
Raised on southern gospel

Well, I was raised on it
It's where I call home
Made my way on it
It's the only thing I know

It's in my bones, it's in my blood
It's in my roots down in the mud
And it's a redneck church choir singing
Holy, holy, holy
It's in my jeep, it's in my boots
It's in the way that spirit moves
And a part time sinner, a wanna-be apostle
Raised on southern gospel

Oh, it's in my bones, it's in my blood
It's in my roots down, my roots down in the mud
Raised on southern gospel
