Tennessee

[Verse 1]
I was raised on a Tennessee hillside
Where blackberry bushes grow thick (Grow thick)
With feet like the soul of a workin' man's boot
And a head like a weight made of lead
Crooked grin, thorn stickin' out my shoulder
Hair too damn long, oh well (Oh well)
They tell me take a break, I'm sorry I can't
Tennesseans make music year 'round (Year round)

[Chorus]
I can't help it, God put me in a place of green
Even the tractors got the same damn color paint
Same ol' rivers and same ol' streams
Cut that exhaust off, son, let it scream
God bless the south, I'll never shut my mouth
And I'm proud to be from Tennessee
Tennessee, Tennessee
I'm proud to be from Tennessee, mmm

[Verse 2]
My favorite shirt has the arms cut out
With a couple old tobacco stains (Tobacco stains)
I've burnt up every Kenny Chesney album drinkin' Coors Light (Drinkin' Coors Light)
Been sunburnt on a lake (On a lake)
And I wanna know how forever feels (Forever feels)
But not in no hall of fame (Hall of fame)
'Cause I'll always be in a holler with the workin' man (Workin' man)
And that's somethin' nobody can take (Nobody can take)

[Chorus]
I can't help it, God put me in a place of green
Even the tractors got the same damn color paint
Same ol' rivers and same ol' streams
Cut that exhaust off, son, let it scream
God bless the south, I'll never shut my mouth
And I'm proud to be from Tennessee
Tennessee, Tennessee
I'm proud to be from Tennessee
