Well go ahead and call me a country boy
|
I couldn't hide it even if I tried
|
I'm a country boy from the hills of old Virginia
|
Where the country folks got lots of country pride
|
Well daddy raised us working in a coal mine
|
But mama's love was always by his side
|
When things got rough we've just got rough with 'em
|
And through it all we've never lost our country pride
|
There's never been a better chance in hist'ry
|
To make our life a better way to live
|
And I think of this and I see blessing
|
Because we've never been afraid to give
|
Every time I see Ol' Glory wavin' somewhere
|
I feel my heart just swelling up inside
|
I'm proud to be a country boy from the greatest land of all
|
And I thank you Lord for all this country pride
|

|
Go ahead and smile when I say you all
|
But I see you like your chicken southern fried
|
It don't really matter where you come from
|
As long as your heart's full of country pride
|
Every time I see Ol' Glory...
|
I thank you Lord for all this country pride
