Tracy Byrd - "I'm From The Country"


Way back up in the country, back in the hills,
Down in the hollows where the folks are real.
Livin’ with the crazies and the old wildcats,
Sawed off shotguns and coonskin caps.
That’s where I’m from and I’m proud to say,
I’m from the country and I like it that way.

Everybody knows everybody. Everybody calls you friend.
You don’t need an invitation, kick off your shoes come on in.
Yeah, we know how to work and we know how to play.
We’re from the country and we like it that way.

All day long we work in the fields,
Then bring it on home to a home cooked meal.
We love you like Sunday, and treat you like Saturday night.
And when the bed gets full we can sleep in the hay (hey!)
We’re from the country and we like it that way.

Everybody knows everybody. Everybody calls you friend.
You don’t need an invitation, kick off your shoes come on in.
Yeah, we know how to work and we know how to play.
We’re from the country and we like it that way.

Everybody knows everybody. Everybody calls you friend.
You don’t need an invitation, kick off your shoes come on in.
Yeah, we know how to work and we know how to play.
We’re from the country,
We’re from the country,
We’re from the country and we like it that way.
