In My Veins

Where I come from they're good at racing Their hands on Sunday, drinks up high and a bunch of babies Everybody knows everybody's business Like who got drunk, who got fired, and who's been kissin' 18 years old, I hit the road Didn't plan on lookin' back But you don't leave with roots that deep No matter where you're at It's in my blood, it's in my veins The way I talk and the way I pray If I close my eyes, I'm there right now You can take the girl out of the country But the country stays running in my veins Running in my veins For a little while, I can tone it down But a couple drinks or a call from momma brings it out I'm a sucker for a romance, ooh I'd love a southern man To hold my door and hold my hand before he gets that kiss (hey) It's in my blood, it's in my veins The way I talk and the way I pray If I close my eyes, I'm there right now You can take the girl out of the country But the country stays running in my veins Running in my veins You might see me in NYC or California But you best believe my heart is always still in Georgia It's in my blood, it's in my veins The way I talk and the way I pray If I close my eyes, I'm there right now You can take the girl out of the country But the country stays running in my veins Running in my veins It's running in my veins Oh it's running in my veins Baby, running in my veins Ooh it's running in my veins Baby, running in my veins
