Call Me Country Lyrics

You can laugh at my old pickup

Say it's seen too many miles

You can roll your eyes at my boots and jeans

But I wear them with a smile

I don't need no shiny city lights

I've got stars up in my sky

The smell of fresh-cut hay, a southern breeze

That's the life that gets me by

Call me country, yeah, I'll take that name

Dirt roads, bonfires, it's all in my veins

I've got a heart that beats for this simple life

A little bit of whiskey, a lot of pride

So call me country, go ahead, that's fine

I'll wear it like a badge, cause it's mine

Some folks think I'm stuck in the past

But I say it's where I belong

My granddad's porch and my mama's prayers

Built a backbone big and strong

I don't need much, just a piece of land

A fishing pole and my dog

You can call it small, but it feels so big

Out here with the frogs and the fog

Call me country, yeah, I'll take that name

Dirt roads, bonfires, it's all in my veins

I've got a heart that beats for this simple life

A little bit of whiskey, a lot of pride

So call me country, go ahead, that's fine

I'll wear it like a badge, 'cause it's mine

There's something 'bout the sound of gravel

Crunching underneath my boots

Something about the way this southern drawl

Turns the truth into roots

Call me country, yeah, I'll take that name

Dirt roads, bonfires, it's all in my veins

I've got a heart that beats for this simple life

A little bit of whiskey, a lot of pride

So call me country, go ahead, that's fine

I'll wear it like a badge, 'cause it's mine

You can call me country, I won't disagree

It's not just where I'm from, it's who I'll always be
