It don't matter where you grew up on a map
We've all ran around barefoot in the grass
Or taken a drive just to drive
It ain't a place or a style it's a state of mind
And you can go there anytime you like
So turn the radio up tonight
If you've worn a bbq stained t shirt underneath a blue clear sky
If you know every single word to "thunder rolls" and "mama tried"
If you blessed the broken road drinks in the air, singing "summertime"
Then you got, you got a country side
It's hard work and faith
Blood, sweat and tears
It's long days and nights but short sweet years
It's a front porch glass of strawberry wine
Laughed until we cried at suppertime and seeing
Memories when you hear that melody
If you've worn a bbq stained t shirt underneath a blue clear sky
If you know every single word to "thunder rolls" and "mama tried"
If you blessed the broken road drinks in the air, singing "summertime"
Then you got, you got a country side
It's 3 chords and truth that define us
It's "family tradition" that binds us
It's "i fall to pieces" cuz "you're still the one"
It's "barefoot and blue jeans" on fridays
"Forever and ever amen" on sundays
So "raise em up" "give it all we got tonight"
