Those Kind Of Women

Shellin' purple hull peas on the front porch

Sprayin' WD-40 on the screen door

Smell of white rain on a summer breeze

Wooden spoon stirrin' sugar in the sun tea

Brimstone bibles on night stands

For better or for worse on some gold bands

A long line of crazy, biscuits and gravy

That's what made me

I was raised by those kind of women

Rocked to sleep on Dolly and Dylan

Set ya straight with a fly swatter whippin'

You can always smell love cookin' in the kitchen

Knew how to make a man listen

Keep a little rainy day coffee can cash hidden

And whatever kinda hell they were goin' through

Jesus was right there with 'em

I was raised by those kind of women

If it was on their mind it was out their mouth

When life was a ditch they'd pull ya out

They show up in everything I do or say

And I thank God everyday

I was raised by those kind of women

Rocked to sleep on Dolly and Dylan

Set ya straight with a fly swatter whippin'

You can always smell love cookin' in the kitchen

Knew how to make a man listen

Keep a little rainy day coffee can cash hidden

And whatever kinda hell they were goin' through

Jesus was right there with 'em

I was raised by those kind of women

The kind that's done a lotta livin'

The day you move away or when you lay 'em in the grave

Damn right you're gonna miss 'em

I was raised by those kind of women

Rocked to sleep on Dolly and Dylan

Sunday mornin' church plate givin'

You can always smell love cookin' in the kitchen

Knew how to make a man listen

Keep a little rainy day coffee can cash hidden

And whatever kinda hell they were goin' through

Jesus was right there with 'em

I was raised by those kind of women

I was raised by those kind of women
