This dirt has my skin on it And these rocks have my blood on them These big tall trees As tall as the eye can see Have my hammered nails on them From back when I was a kid
And all the cops in this one horse town they know my first name They'd know the truck I drive They know I'm not here to stay
Chorus: So get ready I'm tying one on I'm living a country song I got my work clothes on I aint goin down till the sun comes up A bottle of whiskey on my old stompin ground Brings me around to the old familiar faces I need To recharge my battery
VERSE 2: And these rivers I have swam them And these backroads I own them
Like the back of my head Like my Granddaddy said This roads going straight to hell Like a snowball straight to hell
And all the cops in this one horse town they know me by my first name They'd know the truck I drive They know I'm not here to stay
Chorus #2: So get ready I'm tying one on I'm living a country song I got my work clothes on I aint goin down till the sun comes up A bottle of whiskey on my old stompin ground Brings me around to the old familiar places I need To recharge my battery
