Intro:  Em G D A (2x) 

        Em                      G   
I had a buddy come down 'round last July 
  D                                   A 
Called me when he crossed the Mason Dixon line 
             Em                    G                     D    A 
Said he was headed down south and lookin' for a real good time 
       Em                 G      
I said man c'mon I got a place in mind 
              D                            A  
And we pulled up at a bar right off the Georgia line 
Em                G 
Walked in man his eyes got wide 
              A                                          D 
and when his jaw hit the floor all I could do was smile 
          G                                                  A 
He said, Man we got some pretty women up North, but I ain't never seen nothin like this; 
             G                                 A 
and I said, Man these here ain't ordinary women, we call these GRITS;

         Em                 
She's a product of bein' raised in the country 
     D                          
She knows her roots and works hard for her money 
 A 
A southern drawl with dark tanned legs  
        G                             A 
Ain't nothing like a woman southern born and bred  
          Em                            
Now she loves her mom and daddy and the Lord to death  
      G       
Just actin' innocent; playin' hard to get  
          D 
With the girls tonight, man their out on the town 
 A            A 
GRITS, man a girl raised in the South 

Em G D Em (2x) 

      Em                          G 
He sat down at the bar and had a couple drinks  
 D                       A 
Breakin' his neck just scopin' the scene  
           Em                     G                           D    A 
It wasn't long before he had my attention pointed towards the door 
         Em                      G                       D  
He was starin at long legs that ran into boots, short skirt, and t shirt 
         A 
didn't have much use 
       Em                     G                 A 
But she walked right to the jukebox and fired it up  
          G 
She had every head turnin 
                             A  
Boys eyes was burnin as she made her way out to the floor 
          G  
Had the jealous girls lookin all sayin  
                      A 
She ain't nothin but a-oh my god she just broke it down low! 

  
 
Em

A southern drawl with dark tanned legs 
         G                            A  
Ain't nothing like a woman southern born and bred 
          Em                           
Now she loves her mom and daddy and the Lord to death  
 G                                             D
