V1:
|
Gettin up while it's still dark, trying to get me a head start.
|
Bass fishin on a pond in Lyons, a stringer full most of the time
|
Back home just in time to eat. Cream and syrup on a biscuit sure is sweet
|
Put on my cap and right back out the door when I was a country boy
|
|
Pre chorus:
|
I watched my daddy work it every day. Nothing ever tough enough to stand in his way
|
Chorus:
|
Now I'm a countryman everyday I take a stand
|
In my ripped blue jeans on my atv my family's counting on me
|
I'm a countryman, man of steel, I been roughed up and I'm tough as nails
|
Bullet proof, I've been set free. You don't want to mess with me, I'm a countryman
|
Doin the best I can
|
|
V2:
|
I used to wanna ride the ole John Deere, wishin I could rope a steer.
|
Spent some time camouflaged in a tree stand, wishin I could own the land.
|
Wondered how all the work got done. I was trying to have some fun
|
Back when life was full of joy, when I was a country boy
|
|
Last pre chorus:
|
Now I'm the daddy whose workin every day, I can't let anything stand in my way
