My Own

Yeah I call them all my own

I call them my own

I call them my own

I call them my own

The kids in the trailer park, after dark

Underneath the streetlight shootin' some basketball

Momma, daddy in the house smokin' Marlboro reds

'Til the damn nicotine shows up on the wall

Daddy lookin' drunk as a skunk, stumblin' some

Catchin' a buzz, just fightin' the fuzz, like what's up

Some of these kids never even seen love

So they search through the soundwaves in them fuckin' iPhone buds

I got a couple neurotic skins in my town that I check on

Make sure that they been fed, got a pillow to rest on

Some money in their pocket and some wheels to get gone

You're Big Brother Church, I ain't better than no one

I live by the Bible but also the gun

I was made in the south and I'm reppin' the mud

These folks are my family don't mess with them none

We bleedin' the same except whiskey sent blood

Knee deep in muddy water, fist full of red clay

Soul full of Dixieland and a voice in my place

These fields, these hills, these hollows, these folks

Yeah, I call them all my own

I call them my own

I call them my own

I call them my own

Everybody wanted to move out

Graduate high school, pack a bag and peace out

But little was it known that you're heart stays home

Draw a plan in my roots, I've grown

Rode with Rick for a moment, then I got my own

Now I'm on stage missin' brick, block and stone

I hope it was worth the miles

But it all makes sense when I see their little smiles

When I hear 'em brag about bein' from JC

I wonder if I made a impact

Will they grow when they grown up, accumulate stuff

Will they realize the truth and give back?

There can only be one spot on the map where you're from

When the game stops workin' and you still belong

Your name means something forever in Jones County

And that's the people I'm callin' my own

Knee deep in muddy water, fist full of red clay

Soul full of Dixieland and a voice in my place

These fields, these hills, these hollows, these folks

Yeah, I call them all my own

I call them my own

I call them my own

I call them my own
