Lyrics

[Verse 1] If you wonder why I walk this way, why I talk this way Why I never trade my truck back in Why I cover up my farmers tan Why I get my coffee where I get my tractor parts Know what to do when the truck won't start Dog in the back, tip of a hat No, it ain't an act [Chorus] I come from country people, yeah No need to hate me I'ma direct descendent of some dust bowel babies Little salt of the earth mixed with sunshine and diesel, yeah Thank God I came from country people We're boots heed the dirt We're dots on the map We're dinner blue, tried and true Damn good country people [Verse 2] My piece of heaven is a piece of land A shake of a hand is all you really need to get somethin' bought When you pay cash like your daddy taught Why a good time is a good girl On a slow drive on moonshine, beer in a can I'm a simple man, I am the way I am 'Cause I come from [Chorus] I come from country people, yeah No need to hate me I'ma direct descendent of some dust bowel babies Little salt of the earth mixed with sunshine and diesel, yeah Thank God I came from country people We're boots heed the dirt We're dots on the map We're dinner blue, tried and true Damn good country people I come from country people, yeah No need to hate me I'ma direct descendent of some dust bowel babies Little salt of the earth mixed with sunshine and diesel, yeah Thank God I came from country people We're beer in the air We're chairs in the grass Stayin' for as long as the firewood lasts We're boots heed the dirt We're dots on the map We're dinner blue, tried and true Damn good country people Thank God for country people (My piece of heaven is a piece of land A shake of a hand is all you really need to get somethin' bought) Thank God for country people
