i know where i come from
how ’bout you
i don’t need baggy clothes
or rings in my nose to be cool
the scars on my knuckles
match these scuffs on these cowboy boots
an’ there’s a whole lot more like me
how ’bout you
i punch the clock trying’ to make it to the top
how ’bout you
i arent got no blueblood trust fund
i can dip in to
yeah i wish uncle sam would give a damn
about the man who’s collar’s blue
but if he don’t hell i’ll make it on my own
how ’bout you
an’ how ’bout you
do you feel the way i do
to tell the truth
i think we’re the chosen few
but that’s just me
how ’bout you
i still say yes ma’am to my momma
how ’bout you
if i shake your hand look you in the eye
you can bet your ass it’ll be the truth
i cover my heart with my hat
when they fly that red white and blue
just like my daddy taught me
how ’bout you
an’ how ’bout you
do you feel the way i do
to tell the truth
i think we’re the chosen few
but that’s just me
how ’bout you
i like my country rocking’
how ’bout you
just put me on a stage man
turn it up an’ i’ll turn it loose
yeah give me a crowd that’s redneck an’ loud
we’ll raise the roof
hell i might just stay all night long
how ’bout you
do you feel the way i do
to tell the truth
i think we’re the chosen few
an’ how ’bout you
do you feel the way i do
cause man i know where i come from
how ’bout you
