Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She's a map dot with a welcome sign
She's a truck stop cherry coke with ice
Still repping that Bobcat pride
Still calling from an 865
[Verse 2]
She's a ragtop on a hand-me-down Jeep
She's a flat rock skipping 'cross a creek
She's waffles with the chicken fried
Hungover from a neon Friday night
[Verse 3]
And she takes that small town
Everywhere she goes now
[Verse 4]
Singing George Strait down Fifth Avenue
Rodeo Drive in her cowboy boots
Palm trees shading them southern roots
Hotter than a ring of fire
She's a black dress baby with a blue jean heart
Dirty martini in a mason jar
Honky-tonk angel on a rooftop bar
Spinning like a rope swing tire
[Verse 5]
Oh, and she might leave
But she takes Tennessee all around the world
Nah, you can't take the country outta my girl
[Verse 6]
(I hear you, man, but let me tell you about my city girl)
[Verse 7]
She's a dumpling with the tofu fried
She's an X-Box on a Friday night
She doesn't give a damn about sports
Not gettin' in your 4x4
From LAX to BNA, every day
Yeah, she's singing
[Verse 8]
Kurt Kobain down country roads
Sunday school in her fishnet hose
Lace fan hidin' the ring in her nose
Hotter than a ring of fire
She's an overalls baby in her creeper sneaks
Whiskey hip flask but Mugicha tea
Anime girl at the old swap meet
Burnin' like a vampire
[Verse 9]
Oh, and she might skate
But she takes LA all around the world
No, you can't take the city out of my girl
Yeah, can't take the city, no, no, no
[Verse 10]
And she takes that iPhone
Everywhere she goes now (Ha, at least they got that in common)
[Verse 11]
Singing George Strait down Fifth Avenue
Rodeo Drive in her cowboy boots
Palm trees shading them southern roots
Hotter than a ring of fire
She's a black dress baby with a blue jean heart
Dirty martini in a mason jar
Honky-tonk angel on a rooftop bar
Spinning like a rope swing tire
[Verse 12]
Oh, and she might leave
But she takes Tennessee all around the world
Nah, you can't take the country outta my girl
[Verse 13]
Can't take the country
Outta my girl
Oh-oh
You can take the girl outta the country
But you can't take the country outta my girl
Outta the country
You can't take the country outta my girl
