Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Play me some mountain music
Like grandma and grandpa used to play
And I'll float on down the river
To a Cajun hideaway
[Verse 2]
Clear creeks and cold mountain mornings
Honest work out in the fields
Cornbread in my mama's kitchen
Daddy sayin' grace before the meal
Family ties run deep in this land (In this land)
And I'm never very far from what I am
[Verse 3]
I was born country
And that's what I'll always be
Like the rivers and the woodlands
Wild and free (Runnin' wild and free)
I got a hundred years of down home
Runnin' through my blood (Runnin' through my blood)
I was born country
And this country's what I love (And this country's what I love)
I was born country
[Verse 4]
I'm in a hurry
I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh, I rush and rush until life's no fun (Till life's no fun)
All I really gotta do is live and die
But I'm in a hurry and don't know why
[Verse 5]
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
That lead guitar is hot, but not for a Louisiana man
So rosin up that bow for Fated Love and let's all dance (Let's all dance)
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
(In the band, oh, yeah)
[Verse 6]
White-tail buck deer muchin' on clover
Red-tail hawk sittin' on a rail
Chubby ol' groundhog, croakin' bullfrog
Free as a feeling in the wind
Lucky as a seven, livin' in Heaven
Yeah, with my dixieland delight
[Verse 7]
Spend my dollar
Parked in a holler 'neath the mountain moonlight (Mountain moonlight)
Hold her up tight (Hold her up tight)
Make a little lovin' (Make love)
A little turtle dovin' on a Mason-Dixon night (Mason-Dixon night)
Fits my life (Fits my life)
Oh-so right (Oh-so right)
My Dixieland delight
[Verse 8]
Oh, I believe there are angels among us
Sent down to us from somewhere up above
They come to you and me in our darkest hours
To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
To guide us with a light of love
To guide us with a light of love
