(Intro)
Thank Yall How Yall Doin? Yeh my names Colt Ford I jus came here to do a little song for yall bout where I come from
the way I see it I brought my buddy Mr. John Michael Montgomery with me he's gunna play a lil guitar and sing a lil bit.

(Verse 1)
Down the road where the black top ends you can find Colt Ford with all his friends we're used to gravel roads and fishin'
with cane poles wasn't no swimmin' pools jus swimmin' holes.

We was dirt road poor and cane switched raised I've been came a long way since back in them days been ‘round the world
twice seen all fifty states ate on thousand dollar china but love sum paper plates there aint nuthin wrong with them big
city lights but me I prefer them slow country nights where I can see the darkness come in and go

Most folks is honest and they all speak slow you can leave your door open aint nuttin' gunna happen most country folks
sing but I couldn't so im rappin I wanna show yall where I come from and invite yall all down to any country town

(Chorus)
Now before I pack and things and leave there's sumthin I need yall to understand I seen alotta things in my life time
that's why I walk the line I'm just a simple man and I aint in the things for cheep thrills but all my scars heel so
don't you ever cry for me I aint ashamed where I'm from you always will come take a ride through the country.

(Verse 2)
Up dressed and gone by 5 am he's country and he's rappin' we gotta play him folks been waitin for some one like me to
give ‘em some heart beats and spit that country

My jeans don't sag they fit they kinda tight got on a white t-shirt no nothin' but work. Daylight til dark that's how I
was bread and I'll keep bein' country til the day I'm dead

See country folks eat biscuits called cat heads bar-b-q baked beans sweet tea and white bread we like to fish and
hunt aint scared of a fight love the Good Lord and believe in doin' right

Got 4-wheel drives some got mud on ‘em you can keep your rolls roice cuz baby we don't want 'em! So now yall all know
exactly who I am and if you aint into that i don't give a damn!

(Chorus)
Now before I pack and things and leave there's sumthin I need yall to understand I seen alotta things in my life time
that's why I walk the line I'm just a simple man and I aint in the things for cheep thrills but all my scars heel so
don't you ever cry for me I aint ashamed where I'm from you always will come take a ride through the country.

(Verse 3)
You might see my on your t.v but honey that don't mean a thing you see I'm still that same ‘ol country boy and that's
all I'll ever be and sometime those bright lights blind me and make it hard for me to see but when I need to be reminded
I take a ride through the country

(Verse 4)
At about 5 o'clock on Friday afternoon them country boys head down to the local saloon you welcome to stop in and have a
cold bottle big city boys and stuck up super models we don't care where ya from as long as you polite cuz push come to
shove and every one of us will fight

We mostly easy like Sunday morning ol' Colt came here to give yall fair warnin' country folks wont be pushed around and
theres some of us livin' in every town we believe in the Bible and the U.S.A work hard for what you want it's the
American way no body owe you nothin' supposed to earn your keep but in a hard days work get a good nights sleep

I know some of yall think Colt's kinda odd but I'm loud proud and country by the grace of God!

(Chorus)
Now before I pack and things and leave there's sumthin I need yall to understand I seen alotta things in my life time
that's why I walk the line I'm just a simple man and I aint in the things for cheep thrills but all my scars heel so
don't you ever cry for me I aint ashamed where I'm from you always will come take a ride through the country.
