Well, I've always been happy
To get a little mud on my boots
Get a little dirt on my hands
But I never sat on the back of no bull
Does that make me any less
Well, I've always been ready
To my neighbor when he's run out of luck
But I never rode the boundary
I never drove no interstate truck
and a country state of mind
Country, it's where I'm from
Country, it's where I'm at
Country's where I'm going to
palomino and a cowboy hat
I don't need no straw to chew
I'll work hard and play hard
Well I'm wrong more than I'm right
So you can call me what you like
But don't tell me I'm not country
Well I've got this old guitar
And I like to sing my songs
and I hope that I can make you see
That it might not be the same
as what you're hearing on the radio
But it sounds like country to me
and a country state of mind
Country, it's where I'm from
Country, it's where I'm at
Country's where I'm going to
palomino and a cowboy hat
I don't need no straw to chew
Well, I live by the rules
I will work hard and play hard
Well I'm wrong more than I'm right
So you can call me what you like
But don't tell me I'm not
Yeah, well I'm wrong more than I'm right
So you can call me what you like
But don't tell me I'm not country enough
