Country In My Genes

Well, they say that I'm too country the way I look and sound
They wanna make me over just a little more uptown
Say I need to change my image, now tell me what that means
Don't they know I've got country in my genes

I can't help the way I talk, I wouldn't change it if I could
Sophisticated ain't my style, but country fits me good
And I ain't ashamed for wearing what's been handed down to me
Oh Lord, I've got country in my genes

I got country in my genes
Country in my blood
It goes back generations
It's something I'm proud of
It's something I was born with
What you get is what you see
I'm just an old hillybilly with a bluegrass song to sing
Oh Lord, I've got country in my genes

If country's hit the big time, me I'm still the same
And I ain't above my raisin't and I ain't about to change
I wouldn't trade my Wranglers for the finest gabardine
Oh Lord, I've got country in my genes

I got country in my genes
Country in my blood
It goes back generations
It's something I'm proud of
It's something I was born with
What you get is what you see
I'm just an old hillybilly with a bluegrass song to sing
Oh Lord, I've got country in my genes
Oh Lord, I've got country in my genes
