D                         Em                C                    G                  
Down the road where the black top ends, you can find Colt Ford with all his friends,
  D                           Em
weâ??re used to gravel roads, and fishinâ??
                 C                          G
with cane poles, wasnâ??t no swimminâ?? pools, jus swimminâ?? holes. 

D                         Em                     C                                G  
We was dirt road poor, and cane switched raised, Iâ??ve been came a long way since back in them days,
D                           Em                     C                             G
been â??round the world twice seen all fifty states, ate on thousand dollar china, but love sum paper plates
D                              Em                  C                             G
there aint nuthin wrong with them big city lights, but me, I prefer them slow country nights
D                            Em                C                      G
where I can see the darkness come in and go, Most folks is honest, and they all speak slow
D                             Em                          C                                      G
you can leave your door open, aint nuttinâ?? gunna happen, most country folks sing, but I couldnâ??t, so im rappin
D                       Em                   C                     G
I wanna show yall where I come from, and invite yall all down to any country town 

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

(Verse 2) 
D                         Em            C                       G

D                        Em                              C                  G
My jeans donâ??t sag, they fit, they kinda tight, got on a white t-shirt, no nothinâ?? but work.
D                          Em                        C                         G
Daylight til dark, thatâ??s how I was bread, and Iâ??ll keep beinâ?? country til the day Iâ??m dead 
D                        Em                       C                       G
See, country folks eat biscuits called cat heads, bar-b-q, baked beans, sweet tea, and white bread
D                         Em                      C                             G
we like to fish and hunt, aint scared of a fight, love the Good Lord and believe in doinâ?? right, 
D                   Em                            C                      G
Got 4-wheel drives, some got mud on â??em, you can keep your rolls roice, cuz baby, we donâ??t want â??em!
D                        Em                   C                  G
So now yall know exactly who I am, and if you aint into that, i donâ??t give a damn! 

(Chorus)
D                      Em                         C                       G
Now before I pack and things and leave, thereâ??s sumthin I need yall to understand
               D                   Em                         C                     G
I seen alotta things in my life time, thatâ??s why I walk the line, Iâ??m just a simple man
              D                              Em                    C                   G

         D                       Em                       C                             G
I aint ashamed where Iâ??m from, you always will come, take a ride through the country.


(Verse 3)
           D              Em               C                  G
You might see my on your t.v, but honey yeah, that donâ??t mean a thing, 
               D                  Em                      C            G  
you see, Iâ??m still that same â??ol country boy, and thatâ??s all Iâ??ll ever be,
        D                         Em                     C              G
and sometime, those bright lights blind me, and make it hard for me to see,
            D              Em             C                  G
but when I need to be reminded, I take a ride through the country


(Verse 4)
    D                          Em                C                           G
At about 5 oâ??clock on Friday afternoon, them country boys head down to the local saloon
       D                          Em            C                         G

        D                    Em                         C                            G

 D                          Em           C            G
